NOVEL NEXT Chapter 2194 Mourinho: Today, prove that you are no worse than Ye!
"Dear viewers, welcome to tonight's FA Cup semi-final. I am your old friend, Zhao Zhao!"
Because the copyright belongs to bilibili, almost all football up-loaders are broadcasting this game.
"Players from both teams walked into Wembley Stadium, led by our old friend Anthony Taylor."
"The scene was really bustling with people, gongs and drums were blaring, firecrackers were blasting, and there were huge crowds of people!"
"The camera is also aimed at the most handsome man in this game, the king of football from our China, Ye Shen!"
The players entered the court with their caddies.
The camera also scanned the players' faces one after another.
When Ye Chen's appearance animation appeared on the big screen, huge cheers broke out immediately.
Fans of both sides became nervous.
Manchester United fans have a slight psychological advantage, but they know Mourinho's strength.
This game is going to be tough for sure.
"Let's first take a look at the starting lineups for both teams today!"
"Manchester United, wearing red jerseys, still use a 433 formation."
"Goalkeeper Romero."
"Left back Ake, double centre backs Smalling and Pepe, right back Valencia."
"The three midfielders are Ronaldo, Modric and De Bruyne."
"Rashford on the left, Cristiano Ronaldo on the forward, Ye Chen on the right."
"According to Manchester United's official announcement, Maguire will be out for three weeks and Cancelo will be out for two weeks. If Manchester United can reach the final, they can catch up, but they probably won't be able to play in the Champions League semi-finals!"
Players cannot play directly after recovering from injuries, but instead need to adapt to the rhythm of the game and restore their physical strength.
So the pressure on Manchester United's defense has been very high during this period.
Today I used Ake as left back, mainly because I felt Rojo was not stable enough as a full-back.
Of course, because of his height, Ake often plays as a left-back.
"Tottenham players are wearing white jerseys today, and the lineup is the regular 4231!"
"Worm is used as goalkeeper."
"Ben Davies at left back, Jan Vertonghen and Alderweireld at centre back, and Serge Aurier at right back."
"Dembélé and Dier are the double midfielders."
"Left winger Son Heung-min, attacking midfielder Alli, right winger Eriksen."
"Forward Harry Kane."
Except for the goalkeeper Lori, the other positions are basically the main players.
Of course, the same is true for Manchester United.
In this kind of cup competition, we still need to give substitute goalkeepers some opportunities to perform.
I just don't know if Romero can withstand the pressure today and help Manchester United win this game!
Players from both teams quickly stood in their own areas.
Anthony Taylor was looking at his watch, whistle in his mouth.
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Beep!"
With a whistle, the powerful clash of the FA Cup semi-finals officially begins!
Seats for 8 people were opened today.
The tickets were sold out within five minutes of being released!
Although it was only the semi-finals, the popularity was quite high.
Of course, this is also related to the upcoming World Cup.
Now the media starts to promote the news about the World Cup...
In the stands, Japan's head coach Löw was sitting in the stands.
He came to see how Mourinho and Ancelotti fought.
Manchester United led by Ancelotti is definitely stronger than Tottenham, but how will Mourinho, a defensive master, respond?
This is also a major highlight of this game.
After all, Germany will definitely be a strong team in the upcoming World Cup.
They will also face many teams that park the bus against them, so they will have to see how the game goes.
However, to everyone's surprise, Tottenham, who were good at defense, did not retreat at all, but launched an attack decisively.
After all, they have been playing here for a whole season and are very familiar with the place, so they don't need to adapt at all.
Although Manchester United has scored a lot of goals this season, Mourinho knows very well that the reason they can score so many goals is based on their defense.
Since they are not familiar with the place, they have to get off to a good start.
Tottenham launched an attack directly from the left.
After all, after Manchester United replaced Ake on the left, their defense was top-notch, but their offensive power declined.
Today, Manchester United used veteran Valencia on the right side.
So before the game, Mourinho grabbed Son Heung-min and said a lot of things, "Your career will definitely not be better than Ye, but as an Asian, you can beat Ye in a game! Today, prove that you are no worse than Ye!"
Son Heung-min did not expect that he would be recognized by a world-class head coach. He nodded repeatedly, full of confidence.
As soon as he got the ball, he started to make various breakthroughs.
Valencia had not yet entered the game and was repeatedly attacked.
In desperation, Manchester United could only let B Ronaldo come over to assist in defense.
But this way there will be space in the middle.
Ali seized the opportunity and attempted two shots, one volley and one from an angle.
But none of them threatened the goal.
One was intercepted by Smalling and the other flew out of the baseline.
Manchester United players also gradually entered the game state.
But Ye Chen didn't get too many opportunities.
The main reason is that Mourinho set up double insurance for him.
One is the close defense of midfielder Dembele, and the other is the positioning of Ben Davies.
In fact, Ben Davies, like Ake, can play as a center back or a full back.
Today Mourinho let him play as left back and did not require him to provide assists, so as not to let Ye Chen be too comfortable.
At the beginning of the game, Ye Chen tried to break through repeatedly, but his condition was average and he did not pose much threat.
15 minutes 41 seconds.
Eriksen on the right moves along the wing.
Facing Ake's defense, he dribbled the ball and knocked it to the left before making a cross.
"Oh!"
The football was sent directly to the left penalty area line.
Dale followed up and wanted to head the ball, but B. Ronaldo jumped first and headed the ball to the middle!
Ye Chen, who was moving in the middle, grabbed the ball at the first opportunity. However, just when he wanted to turn around, Dembele rushed up behind him.
The momentum is strong.
But Ye Chen had already observed his movements with the Eyes of God!
Ye Chen pretended to turn to his right side, and at the moment Dembélé pounced in the direction Ye Chen turned, Ye Chen quickly turned to the left.
"Ye Chen turns around!"
"Dembele was too impulsive this time!"
However, Ye Chen, who turned successfully, did not dribble the ball himself.
"Oh!"
He kicked the football directly into the sky!
In the frontcourt, Ronaldo started quickly.
He faces the two central defenders of the Belgian national team, Vertonghen and Alderweireld!
But his super fast speed and explosive power gave him the upper hand!
The football fell from the sky.
Ronaldo glanced at the position of goalkeeper Worm.
Lightly tap your toes and swing your legs slightly!
"Oh!"
The next second, the football turned into a cannonball and flew directly to the lower left corner of the goal!
The fans at the scene all started breathing rapidly.
Manchester United’s attack... is too simple!
It's just passing the ball with two feet.
But it's so deadly!
When a team has two monsters who can end the game, it is like a nightmare for other teams...
