Chapter 149 Comes off the bench again
In Manchester United's dressing room, Ten Hag is giving a speech to the players.
"I am satisfied with your performance in the first half... But, I hope you understand that this is the final. Facing a strong opponent, you can't win the championship just by doing your best."
"I believe that many of you think in your heart that your opponent is better than us."
"I watched the first half, and I felt the same way... But so what? Do you forget that they never beat us this year? Do you forget that Roma, which is weaker than us, also beat us?!"
"On the green field, strength is not important! Since you can't win by playing with all your strength, then play hard! Fight hard! Understand?!
blood!I want to see your blood in the second half!The green field is a small battlefield, not for ballroom dancing!
They're human too, they make mistakes, they make mistakes!They are not much better than you!
Seize that fleeting opportunity and we can get the results we want!
Make them fear you and we can lift the damn trophy and end the season on a happy note! "
"Remember, we are Manchester United!
Let them see in the second half, who is the boss of Manchester! "
After motivating the players, Ten Hager began to talk about tactics. He asked Rashford to move more in the center of the frontcourt, leaving space on the left for B Fee.
Let McTominay move more, don't make the opponent so comfortable with the ball in the frontcourt.
In fact, it is difficult to design any clever tactics in the game. The result of a football game is often foreshadowed in training.
After talking about tactical arrangements, Ten Hag talked to Lin Lingqi alone and asked him how his calf was doing.
Lin Lingqi still felt a little uncomfortable, but he wanted to play to help the team, so he said he could play anytime.
Ten Hag patted him on the shoulder and said nothing.
Lin Lingqi turned his head and looked at Ronaldo, whose breathing rhythm was obviously much faster than the others. His inner rationality actually knew that Luo Ge's current body could no longer support the high-intensity 10-minute game, and his state in the last few games could not Not bad, but very poor.
But everyone, including Ten Hag, believes that the experienced man can find his own form, and the gods will come down to help the team.
But he is 38 years old, not the omnipotent Ronaldo at 28 years old.
Next year, if Manchester United wants to go further in the Champions League, it is best to introduce a powerful striker, such as Kane who wants to leave Tottenham, or let Rashford play this position permanently.
It's just that if this is the case, Ronaldo will have to be a substitute. With his character, he is not Ronaldo if he doesn't make trouble.
The respect for Brother Luo actually froze Lin Lingqi a bit. A long time ago, the assistant coach came to talk to him with Ten Hag's instructions and asked him what suggestions he had for the team's forward position.
At that time, Manchester United had been winning games, and Lin Lingqi was full of spirits. He felt that he had a system and could beat his opponent even if he played with Luo Ge, who might only have the power of the top [-]. He wanted to give Luo Ge a perfect curtain call for his career. Now I find myself taking it for granted and underestimating the heroes of the world.
He couldn't even win against Roma, the blow to Lin Lingqi in this game was bigger than he expected, he began to doubt himself and his teammates.
What's more, even if Manchester United has a full starting lineup, they are not very strong in football.
The halftime break ends and the players return to the pitch.
Manchester City is still the same set of short pass coordination, slowly tearing apart the opponent's defense through conduction.
However, as soon as the second half of the game started, Manchester United made a high press, which made them slightly confused.
Anthony was in a hot state in this game, and his newly added right-footed pass arsenal made the pressure surge when opponents defended him.
In the 52nd minute of the game, McTominay cut off the ball from the little spider in the backcourt, and made a long pass to find the B fee on the left.
Facing the upsurge of seat B, big brother B directly made a long pass to the other side to find Dongzi who advanced at high speed.
Facing the defense of Rodri and Akanji, Anthony stumbled through the encirclement of the two!
Anthony dribbled the ball into the penalty area, put his right foot on the pad, and passed a back high ball.
Rashford rushed to the horse and shot with one foot, but it was a pity that he brushed the post and passed the sliding door.
"Anthony! Good shot! Beautiful breakthrough! This is how Brazilian players dance!
I flash and move, you are fleeting!
High ball, Rashford! !
oops!It's empty!Rashford's form today is too bad, Lin Lingqi scored this goal! "
In the 55th minute of the game, Harland received a pass from De Bruyne at the front of the penalty area, and turned around strongly with Lima on his shoulders. His movements were very serial, but unfortunately he missed.
In the 58th minute of the game, Ronaldo got a high-altitude ball in the frontcourt, but the return header was caught by Rodri. Anthony stole Rodri from behind and rushed forward with the ball.
Anthony came to the front of the penalty area, made a slight adjustment, and pushed directly to the far corner of the goal.
The ball arced like a rainbow, and Ederson, the concentrated Manchester City goalkeeper, dived and slammed the ball over the baseline.
The corner kick was taken, players from both sides competed in the penalty area, Ronaldo fell in the penalty area, and the referee did not say anything.
Manchester City's counterattack, Glarish dribbled the ball at high speed. He escaped Casemiro's flying shovel, carried Dalot's press, and came to the penalty area to push and shoot, and the ball slipped past the goal.
On the Manchester United bench, assistant coach Van der Hahe was holding a tactical board to explain the tactical arrangements to Lin Lingqi. The bald assistant coach driving a Lamborghini said what Lin Lingqi heard from his left ear and out from his right ear.
He, Lin Lingqi, never listened to the coach's tactical arrangements when playing football.
Why do you need to help Big Brother B move more to help him reduce the defensive pressure when attacking... Whether he listens or not, he believes in Big Brother B's ability to solve problems by himself.
Why do you need to open up more space on the side, and then pass back to the midfield in an inverted triangle... Whether you listen or not, he wants to cross to find his teammates.
Why shoot more in the penalty area... don't listen, don't listen... oh, it's okay to listen.
Ten Hager called Lin Lingqi over after listening to the tactical arrangement. Lin Lingqi hadn't come off the bench for a long time. At first, he thought that Ten Hag would say some motivational words when he was a substitute at the beginning. What proved himself? Manchester United are needed, Manchester United need you and stuff like that.
But Ten Hag just said to him lightly, "Lin, in my heart, you are the best football player, better than everyone."
"..." Lin Lingqi.
Lin Lingqi had only heard such words from Dasha Talan, but she did not expect that the bald man with thick eyebrows and big eyes would say such nasty words in order to make him work hard.
"Yes, boss, I am the best football player." Lin Lingqi replied confidently.
Who wouldn't want to be the hero who saves the team?
He has this ability, never doubts himself, and is naturally confident and calm.
In the 65th minute of the game, Lin Lingqi replaced Rashford.
