I am the king of football

Chapter 373 Kill it!

Manchester United, with almost all its players attacking, put a lot of pressure on Manchester City. All of their tall players in the frontcourt who were good at defending headers were recalled. There were also several players in front of the penalty area who played one-on-one or even two-on-one with several Manchester United players who were good at long-range shooting.

"Oh~, the four Manchester United players walked out simultaneously after Scholes stood on the ball. It seems that the Red Devils may have executed the set-piece tactics they arranged!"

With the sound of a whistle, what happened next confirmed Zhan Jun's guess. Scholes just pushed the ball forward, and Phil Jones, the only defender who came in, kicked the ball under him. At the same time, the four attacking players who walked near the penalty area line suddenly accelerated and rushed into the penalty area.

Such a development was something the entire Manchester City team could never have imagined. Phil Jones was very strong and the ball was directly taken out from a position near the baseline and flew to the far right side of the penalty area with a whoosh.

As Rooney and Carrick, the two wingmen, jumped up from the front and middle positions one after another to interfere with the vision and hearing, most of the defensive players around Qin Hu and Van Persie were gone.

"Humph!"

When Kolo Toure judged based on the height of the ball that it was most likely Van Persie who touched the ball at the back post and turned to rush towards Van Persie and the full-back to double-team him, Blue Moon captain Kompany still resolutely followed Qin Hu. He was ready to let this guy know that even if this guy couldn't get the ball in the end, he would let the young man know that there are always people better than you!
"Qin Hu jumped high, almost at the same time as Kompany, and headed the ball! Such a terrifying height, unbelievable!"

Qin Hu was taller than Kompany by two heads. With his speed and perfect pace, he was totally unafraid of the huge force coming from Kompany beside him and hit the ball that had just started to fall at a height that no one expected.

"Shu~"

The ball just brushed the bottom of the crossbar and flew into the goal in front of Joe Hart's astonished eyes. The goalkeeper never expected that someone could jump to such a height and smash the ball into the goal.

"Goal! Goal! Goal! Qin Hu! Nice counterattack. He responded to the opponent's frequent fouls in the first half with a clean header. 2-0. Facing this ferocious tiger, Manchester City has no power to resist!"

"..."

Silence was Kompany's at this moment. If Qin Hu's previous shot made him think that the opponent had some luck factors, then the header from Qin Hu who jumped high and smashed the ball into the goal at an exaggerated height that was much higher than himself really convinced him.

“This is too much…”

Joe Hart, standing in front of the goal, expressed the thoughts of Kompany and a group of defensive players. The already tall Qin Hu now turned into a mountain in their eyes.

When the referee blew two whistles to indicate a valid goal and then blew the whistle to end the first half, Qin Hu, who scored the goal, had already taken the lead and rushed to the bench with his teammates behind him.

"Well done!"

“Thai pants are hot!”

"Qin, that's awesome Qin."

Ferguson hugged Qin Hu tightly as he rushed over, Hernandez screamed excitedly, Maguire also kept shouting "awesome", and all the substitute players felt extremely relieved for the way Qin Hu fought back against his opponent's brutal foul.

Manchester United fans in the three stands were already overjoyed. They had just been loudly greeting the referee, but now they stood up from their seats and started shouting along with the loud speakers of the field control.

"Qin! Qin! Qin! Oh oh oh ~ Our killer, Kill it! Kill it! There is only one king in Manchester, Manchester United! Manchester United! Manchester United!"

As the singing started, the Theatre of Dreams turned into a complete ocean of red. The sky blue formation in the away team's stands and the Manchester City players who were drenched on the field looked miserable in contrast to each other.

"2-0, Manchester United ended the first half of the battle perfectly. The team's fighting power was fully experienced in the heavy rain. In comparison, should Manchester City, which is easily affected by the weather, consider whether their offensive tactics are too single?" Don't talk about this not being the weather Manchester City is good at. If a team wants to always stay at the top, it should have terrifying comprehensive capabilities. Pellegrini's main ground advancement tactics after taking over Manchester City became invalid, but his team did not come up with anything new. This is the fundamental reason why they fell behind by such a large score in the first half.

As Pellegrini led the team back to the locker room with a grim face, the first half of the game came to an end. The Red Devils, who were leading by two goals, were in better shape than ever before, and their coach Ferguson was also all smiles.

During this half-time break, the atmosphere in Manchester United's locker room was naturally very good. Ferguson did not say much. He just reminded the team of a few minor problems in the first half and then left time for his disciples to quickly dry their hair and drink hot water.

The weather in March is not warm enough. It would be troublesome if you get hypothermia while playing football in such heavy rain.

When our eyes came to the Manchester City locker room, Pellegrini and his disciples fell into a strange silence at first. Trailing 0-2 behind their city rivals at halftime, and with frequent fouls and provocations at home, Manchester City did not gain any face or substance.

"call……"

Pellegrini let out a long sigh and did not make tactical adjustments immediately. Having been a coach for so many years, he was very clear that the first thing to adjust in this situation was the players' mentality.

"We have nothing left to fight for this season. I'm sure you all know the importance of this league game through all the reports before the game."

Pellegrini is not good at using a hair dryer and rarely encourages players. He prefers to be sincere and empathetic to boost the emotions of his players.

"We are now 0-2 behind. The heavy rain has had an impact, but didn't you just snatch the championship from them in the final minutes of the game last season? Are you going to give up now with minutes left in the game?"

"Coach, we don't want to!"

Captain Kompany was the first to stand up. He suffered the biggest blow in this game, but being chosen as the captain of the team obviously shows that he has a strong heart.

"We don't want to lose the game in such a disgraceful way! We also don't want to see them showing off their power!"

Kompany slammed the table and stood up with anger. His posture startled all the Manchester City players who were lowering their heads and made them sit up straight.

"Do you want to?!!!"

"In no mood!"

"We haven't played our football and our style yet, are we going to admit defeat like this?"

"do not want!"

"This is the Manchester Derby, a battle where we have to tear a piece of flesh from the opponent even if we have to bite or gnaw with our teeth. Keep your heads up, because we are far from over in our pursuit of them!"

"Roar!"

This is the meaning of a leader. After Kompany's passionate questioning, the morale of the entire Manchester City team was boosted again.
