Chapter 573 Twenty Goals in Each Event

"At 00:00 on November 27, Beijing time (16:00 on the 26th, UK local time), a focus battle in the 14th round of the 2006/07 English Premier League started at the Old Trafford Stadium. The two sides were Manchester United. And Chelsea.”

"For Chinese fans, a game that starts early in the morning is not too late, at least not like the Champions League. Of course, even at six in the morning, I believe Chinese fans will be waiting in front of the TV to watch this game."

Huang Jianxiang smiled and glanced at Zhang Lu beside him, "Director Zhang, what do you think of this game? Does Manchester United have a good chance of winning at home?"

"hey-hey,"

"I think the chances of winning are very high. Although Chelsea are only three points less than Manchester United, they have not played well this season. Although the lineup is still the most prosperous, they may not be able to adapt well enough? Anyway, they play well in every game. It's very difficult, but Manchester United, on the other hand, played with great momentum in almost every game, even when they faced Barcelona and the tough Blackburn Rovers, they played with their own momentum and level."

"So you are optimistic that Manchester United will win Chelsea at home."

"Uh-huh."

"Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. For Chelsea, goalkeeper Cudicini; defenders Gremi, Terry, Carvalho, Ashley Cole; midfielder Makelele, Essien, Lampard , Ballack; the forwards are Shevchenko and Drogba, they play a 4-4-2 formation."

"Manchester United's lineup is 433: goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar; defenders Gary Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, and Heinze; midfielders Carrick, Modric, and Scholes; forwards Ronaldo and Rooney and Dong Fangzhuo. Ferguson only made one adjustment, that is, Heinze replaced Evra, and Evra sat on the bench."

"Giggs has not returned to the team yet. It seems that he is still worried about his sister-in-law. As the Internet becomes more and more developed, players' privacy will become less and less. Bad privacy like this..."

※※※※

In the player tunnel, the two sides were lining up to walk out of the field. Dong Fangzhuo and Terry were walking at the front. Dong Fangzhuo couldn't help but say something mean: "How many goals are you going to concede today?"

Terry's ears twitched and he gave him a sideways glance, "You won't get a chance today."

"Heh, you say that every time."

"But every time I let my teammates pick the ball out of the goal." Dong Fangzhuo raised his chin.

"Get ready." Dong Fangzhuo took a step forward,

Walking out of the tunnel, the Old Trafford fans immediately cheered.

"Fake Squid." Terry's curse was drowned in the cheers...

Beep——

The game officially begins!

Manchester United kicked off first, and Carrick handed the ball to Ronaldo. Just as Ronaldo was about to rush up with the ball, Ballack immediately pulled him to the ground. It seemed that Chelsea was also very determined.

Modric's free kick passed into the penalty area, and Dong Fangzhuo rushed directly from the 17-yard center.

Ouch——

The stands screamed.

Dong Fangzhuo surprised everyone at the beginning and stimulated their adrenaline.

Although Terry's marking was in place, Dong Fangzhuo's head was faster.

However, it was too far from the goal and the ball still missed.

"Look, you were almost crying again."

Dong Fangzhuo provoked Terry again.

Terry…

What could he do? He was indeed bullied by Dong Fangzhuo.

But then Vidic also brought down Ballack outside the penalty area, and Chelsea also got an opportunity to attack the set piece. However, Ballack's painful expression after falling to the ground was a bit exaggerated, and the referee gave him a verbal warning.

Ballack shrugged, placed the ball on the penalty spot, and then blasted a high-quality free kick, but the ball was still slightly over the crossbar.

The two sides were going back and forth, and the pace was quite fast.

In the 8th minute, Ballack passed the ball straight from the right, and Van der Sar struck out in time to clear the ball before Shevchenko. Manchester United immediately retaliated. Rooney broke through Gremi and passed in from the left. Terry, with the help of Carvalho, beat Dong Fangzhuo with a header to clear the ball.

Dong Fangzhuo waved to the referee, Carvalho pulled someone.

The slow motion was immediately switched, and the result was true.

"Carvalho's hand movements were so subtle that almost no one could see it, otherwise Terry might not have been able to hit the ball."

"Recently, it has been said that the players in the Premier League have become worse, and their ability to shoot and dive is getting stronger and stronger..." Huang Jianxiang sighed, "But in this regard, I think the Serie A players are doing better. The Premier League is just Do whatever you want..."

The Blues were not conservative when visiting Old Trafford. Later, Ashley Cole also showed off his skills in the backcourt, and he feinted beautifully past Ronaldo...

Damn it, Ronaldo cursed, he didn’t expect Ashley Cole to dare to act in front of him.

You wait! Ronaldo remembered.

A minute later, Cristiano Ronaldo found an opportunity. He dribbled the ball and first broke Essien's interception, and then rushed directly to Ashley Cole. Ashley Cole certainly did not flinch. After rushing up, C Ronaldo made a sudden stop to pull the ball and was eaten, but Ronaldo did not leave just like that. Instead, he pulled the ball again and changed direction, rushing past Ashley Cole's right.

Hey!

You can not!

Ronaldo walked away, and then he remembered that he wanted to pass the ball into the penalty area. The flight path of the ball was a bit irregular. As a result, Gremi in the penalty area made a header error! Rooney rushed up to grab the second point, but Chelsea goalkeeper Cudicini took off under the interference of Dong Fangzhuo and still picked the ball off.

But when he landed, he let go.

Dong Fangzhuo quickly stretched out his kick and tried to poke the ball into the goal, but Makelele was faster than him.

There was no way, this guy was like a loach, he got out of the way first!

"It's a pity that Makelele kicked the ball out first. Otherwise, Xiao Dong could have kicked the ball in, but the ball still fell at the feet of Manchester United. Neville got the ball and he handed it to Ronaldo. feet."

The ball seemed to be stuck to Ronaldo's feet. Swish, swish, swish, four bicycles stepped out in front of Ashley Cole, and Ashley Cole did not dare to move at all.

With a whoosh, Ronaldo rushed past him again.

Ashley Cole stumbled and fell, and the turf looked slippery. However, Ronaldo has already rushed forward with the ball and passed again.

Snapped.

Ballack's left hand directly stopped the ball in the air.

beep,

Handball.

The referee once again gave Ballack a verbal warning but did not show his cards.

Ronaldo took a direct free kick from 30 yards on the right. Although it was powerful, the angle was too positive and Cudicini saved the crossbar.

Manchester United fans gave a huge round of applause.

"What would be the result if Xiao Dong were to take the penalty shot?" Huang Jianxiang muttered, "Although the quality is very high, I feel that the fallen leaves are better. Xiao Dong's falling leaf ball skills should be able to solve some problems."

"But it seems that Ferguson has no intention of handing over the power of taking set kicks to Dong Fangzhuo. He assigned it to Ronaldo."

Corner kick for Manchester United.

Surrounding Dong Fangzhuo, Terry and Carvalho stood there, never leaving him.

Modric had just sent the ball, and the strong Ballack grabbed the landing spot and pushed the ball directly. Makelele got the ball, but his pass in the midfield was intercepted by Carrick, and Carrick handed it over. It was given to Rooney, who dribbled the ball through the middle, but Essien made a fierce flying tackle, which was also broken.

"Have Chelsea players gone to Blackburn to learn from their experience? Their tackles are very fierce. It would probably be great if Manchester United had Smith coming up."

The ferocity temporarily gave Chelsea players possession of the ball. In the 25th minute, Drogba made a diagonal pass from the left to the right side of the penalty area, but Shevchenko, who followed up, missed the ball half a beat later. Two minutes later, Gremi made a pass from the right. Ferdinand made a header to clear the ball. Lampard volleyed with his left foot from 20 yards in the middle. After the ball was blocked, the power slowed down and Van der Sar easily confiscated it.

"The referee carefully grasped the scale of the game, and any aggressive foul actions were severely punished, so the rhythm of the game was not very tight."

"This may be Chelsea's favorite rhythm. The referee is indirectly helping Chelsea."

But this is all temporary. In the 29th minute, Manchester United intercepted Ballack's pass in the midfield. The ball fell at the feet of Modric. Modric made a diagonal pass and accurately sent the ball to Rooney's feet. Rooney did not stop the ball and passed it directly. Carvalho did not grab the ball in time. His mind was still on Dong Fangzhuo, but in this way he missed the best opportunity. The ball was not blocked. Dong Fangzhuo also picked up the ball at 20 yards, leaning on Terry while also He was able to make a slight adjustment and shot a low curve ball with his left foot into the lower left corner. The ball hit the inside of the left post and went into the net. Cudicini flew and was difficult to save.

"The ball is in! The ball is in! The ball is in!"

"Dong Fangzhuo!"

"This season's league goals have reached 11, which is also the 20th goal in all competitions."

"Everyone has not waited for this game in vain!"
