Chapter 292 Laser Pointer
With a whistle, the battle began.

Both sides are old rivals, and the competition was intense from the start.

In the fourth minute, Manchester United took the lead and launched a series of threatening attacks.

Nani made a cross from the wing.

Boateng cleared the ball with a header.

Scholes kicked the ball back into the penalty area from outside the penalty area.

Berbatov had his back to Bonucci, and without stopping the ball, he passed it to the wall on the left and passed it to Valencia who had entered the penalty area.

Ashley Young and Valencia had physical contact, and both of them kicked towards the football at the same time, but Valencia was ultimately faster.

Ashley Young then stepped on Valencia's instep.

The referee blew the whistle immediately!
"Yellow card! The referee gave a yellow card + penalty without hesitation!"

"There is nothing wrong with this penalty. Among the new Black Wind duo, Valencia is faster, while Ashley Young is more versatile, calm, and has the ability to pass, shoot and defend."

"Zidane complained about Valencia diving, which was just what he should do as Villa's assistant coach. In fact, he also knew that it was not a penalty. You can see that He Tianqi did not make any statement."

Zidane: ???

However, the reason why Zidane had the nerve to express his dissatisfaction was because of He Tianqi's instruction.

If you are called for a foul, make a fuss first.

Even if it is a foul, it can put a certain amount of psychological pressure on the referee.

However, the person who makes unreasonable demands will lose people's favor, so He Tianqi will usually only take action personally when there is indeed a misjudgment.

In the past, this kind of blame was always borne by Inzaghi.

Now it's Zidane's turn.

Soon, the score changed with the cheers of Manchester United fans.

One to zero!

Valencia scored a penalty kick to help Manchester United take the lead.

In the ninth minute, Dong Fangzhuo received the ball on the right and accelerated.

He forced a shot in a confrontation with O'Shea, but the ball went over the crossbar.

O'Shea could not defend him very well. The main reason for this shot was that he had not found his touch yet, otherwise it would have been more threatening.

In the 13th minute, Park Ji-sung made a through pass.

Berbatov made a run forward, received the ball and passed it to the side.

Evra came in and made a cross.

Nani and Valencia rushed into the penalty area.

Boateng headed the ball from the front point and the ball landed over Valencia's head, allowing him to shoot at the goal.

Fortunately, Schmeichel reacted quickly and blocked the ball.

It was then cleared by Bonucci.

When the short players get behind the big central defenders, it greatly affects the clearance of the ball, because they will definitely not be able to keep up if they turn around, and they are not as flexible and fast as the opponents, so they can only jump first.

This led to Boateng's header.

But this is a special case.

In general, it is a pipe dream for Manchester United to score a high goal against Villa.

In the 16th minute, De Bruyne made a straight pass from the left.

Ashley Young caught up with the ball and made a sudden stop to shake off O'Shea.

However, Carrick also returned to defense and took the opportunity to stick to Ashley Young, and the two engaged in a fierce physical confrontation.

During the confrontation, Ashley Young pulled the ball backwards with his right foot, passed it around his left heel, and passed it to Dong Fangzhuo who came over to receive the ball.

Dong Fangzhuo met the football with a half-high cross.

Lewandowski and Ferdinand were fighting fiercely in front of the goal.

Ferdinand was obviously not someone that the little Lewandowski could shake. He seized the advantage and pushed Lewandowski to the ground.

But just when Ferdinand felt that Lewandowski was a little too weak, Lewandowski, who was falling backwards, stretched out his foot and touched the football before Ferdinand.

[Soft yet strong]!
Lewandowski's finishing ability has reached a new level.

boom!
Faced with such a close-range shot, Van der Sar was powerless.

The football flew into the goal.

"GOAL! One to one!"

"The goal was scored by Lewandowski!"

"He scored a goal using an unconventional shooting move."

"Ferdinand was unable to stop Lewandowski even with such strong defense. This player is becoming an excellent striker at a speed visible to the naked eye! This is something he can't get if he goes to Dortmund!"

"He Tianqi is really amazing in training players!"

"It is said that Bayern has launched a plan to find a successor for the aging Toni, and Lewandowski is on their list of candidates!"

In the 22nd minute, Manchester United won a free kick in the frontcourt.

Vidic's header created danger.

If the ball had not been a little slower and was saved by Schmeichel, they would have taken the lead again.

In the 25th minute, De Bruyne suddenly shot from the outside, and his long shot tested Van der Sar's concentration.

But thanks to his experience on the same team with Modric, Van der Sar was very experienced in defending against such long-range shots and kept the ball out.

In the 31st minute, Villa passed the ball into Manchester United's penalty area through penetration.

Ferdinand made a crucial clearance and destroyed the ball before Bale.

The two sides attacked each other continuously, the scene was very exciting, and time passed quickly.

In the 34th minute, Nani's attempt to pass the ball failed and was intercepted by Walker.

Walker then kicked the ball forward to launch a counterattack.

Lewandowski tried hard to get the ball in the center circle.

Generally speaking, if the opponent hits the ball high and deep, the defensive player will have a greater chance of catching it.

Because their position is further back than the opponent's center and closer to where the football lands.

If the high ball is given shallowly, the offensive player will have a greater chance of catching it.

Because the opponent's forward is closer to where the football will land than them.

Moreover, it is very dangerous for defenders to take risks to clear the ball. Even if you get the ball first, what if it is taken by the forward instead?
At this time, you have lost your position and the opponent is in a one-on-one situation.

This is why Lewandowski was able to get this point.

Bale received the ball on the right, made a quick dribble, kicked the ball ten meters away, and cut inside into Manchester United's penalty area.

Vidic and Carrick were forced to move towards Bale.

boom!
Bale made a diagonal pass with his left foot.

Dong Fangzhuo cut into the penalty area from the left without the ball, and O'Shea could only follow behind him and watch.

boom!
Dong Fangzhuo kicked the ball towards the goal and was very confident in his shooting skills.

The ball passed over Van der Sar's palm, went around the far corner and went into the net.

"GOAL! Two to one!"

"Dong Fangzhuo scored against Manchester United again!"

"He is the player who has scored the most goals against Manchester United in the past two years! He is also the player who has scored the most goals against Manchester United in Aston Villa's history!"

"Villa reversed the score, this time the pressure is on Manchester United!"

On the sidelines, He Tianqi and Dong Fangzhuo jumped high and celebrated.

Ferguson was yelling on the sidelines, inspiring the fighting spirit of the Manchester United players.

In the 38th minute, Valencia failed to break through and made a cross from the right.

Scholes received the ball and took a long shot, but the ball went over the goal.

In the 41st minute, Valencia launched a quick attack again and sent a 45-degree cross from the right.

Unfortunately, Berbatov was not fast enough and failed to head the ball, which flew out of the baseline.

The final score of the first half was 2 to 1.

Villa is temporarily leading.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Nani got the cooperation from Park Ji-sung, successfully passed Walker and sent a cross.

Later point!

Valencia headed the ball at the back post, but the angle was too small and was saved by Schmeichel Jr.

However, Berbatov's positioning was amazing and he kicked the ball before Bonucci.

The football hit the net.

Two to two!
Manchester United can also catch up. Berbatov, Valencia, Nani and others celebrated together. Nani was particularly happy because he beat his own speed Walker.

In the 55th minute, Dong Fangzhuo held the ball on the left for a while and then passed the ball back to Ashley Young.

Ashley Young made a direct pull-up pass and made a 45-degree cross without going below the line.

Also looking for the back point.

Evra heads the ball away.

But due to Bale's interference, he didn't exert enough strength and the football almost bounced on the spot.

Bale immediately blocked Evra, successfully stopped the ball, and passed it back.

Near the top of the arc, Motta made a long shot.

Swish!
The football created layers of white waves.

This is a wonderful world wave!
No matter how good a goalkeeper is, he can only surrender when faced with such a shot.

Three to two!
Villa took the lead again.

He Tianqi slid on his knees excitedly on the sidelines.

Zidane looked embarrassed, finding it hard to understand why He Tianqi, a coach, celebrated more than the players.

Just ask you what's the use?

Hey, you know what, every time He Tianqi celebrates, Villa players feel that they are in better shape.

Anyway, they were happy to see He Tianqi celebrating for them on the sidelines.

This is the coach’s recognition of them!
In one word, burning!

In the 59th minute, Walker found an opportunity to make a flying tackle on Nani.

Although there were reasons for the incident, the referee still gave him a yellow card for dangerous action.

Nani started cursing immediately because he was injured.

After examination by the team doctor, Manchester United replaced Nani.

Manchester United midfielder Anderson, who won the Golden Boy Award in 2008, came on as a substitute.

The Portuguese's talent shocked Ronaldo. If he had 5% of Ronaldo's mental attributes, he would become one of the 20 best midfielders in the world.

Too bad he didn't.

In the 64th minute, Lewandowski's shot was blocked by Vidic, giving Manchester United a great chance to counterattack.

Anderson dribbled the ball down the middle, passing De Bruyne and Motta in succession, showing his spirituality to the fullest.

He got into position to pass the ball, but Berbatov wasn't far enough forward.

Anderson couldn't pass the ball immediately.

De Bruyne seized the opportunity and made a flying tackle to knock Anderson down.

The referee showed De Bruyne a yellow card.

De Bruyne didn't argue.

This yellow card was within his expectations.

It's a great deal.

If Anderson had not waited for Berbatov, De Bruyne might have had to pay the price of a red card to interrupt this dangerous attack.

He Tianqi made an emergency adjustment, replacing Fellaini with Kante.

Only Kanter could keep up with the diminutive Anderson.

Fellaini can enhance the height, hardness and even organization and attack of the midfield.

But the team needs Kanter more at this time.

Ferguson also discovered the problem with Berbatov.

His positioning is excellent, but this excellence is based on giving up more opportunities.

That is to say, most of the time they don't fight or compete, and then occasionally they steal something, which is natural and unexpected.

But now Manchester United needs to attack.

Although Berbatov is also very strong, Villa's two central defenders are like two goal gods, and Berbatov cannot gain any advantage.

Boateng, in particular, is strong and fast, like Ferdinand at his peak.

Ferguson decisively replaced Berbatov with Hernandez.

Only a small and quick spirit could drill a hole through this double door panel defense.

In the 79th minute, the crucial scene arrived.

After Bale held the ball on the right side and attracted the defense, he passed the ball horizontally to De Bruyne.

De Bruyne ran towards the ball outside the right side of the penalty area, seemingly preparing to cross with his right foot.

But when he took the second to last step with his right foot, he suddenly increased his stride.

The left foot that was supposed to take the final step hit the ball directly.

Pass with the outside of the foot!
In the penalty area, Lewandowski and Dong Fangzhuo both started to move.

As long as the ball is passed, the ball will most likely be scored.

However, De Bruyne's pass was too sudden and Ferdinand's arm was hit as he was reaching out to direct.

The referee blew the whistle.

Penalty kick!

"Why not give a yellow card?" He Tianqi rushed out to argue.

Zidane was thinking MMP in his heart!

Can you let me handle this kind of well-reasoned debate?

Now you know how to charge.

The fourth official on the sidelines kept explaining to He Tianqi, and even the referee came over to calm He Tianqi's emotions.

Ferdinand did not intend to block, so no card was given.

But the penalty was a sure thing.

After Dong Fangzhuo stood at the penalty spot, he took the penalty kick.

However, while he was preparing, a Manchester United fan shone a green laser into his eyes.

He shook his head.

As a result, the green laser appeared again during the run-up.

boom!
The football flew into the stands.

The Manchester United fans at the scene cheered.

"Oh! What happened? Dong Fangzhuo's penalty kick was totally substandard!"

"He missed the chance to put the team ahead again!"

"This is simply a crime. He... Eh? What's going on? Dong Fangzhuo rushed towards the fans' stands!"

"Fuck it!" Dong Fangzhuo rushed to the sidelines and pointed directly at the Manchester United fan in the stands who was shining a laser at his eyes. The Manchester United fan in the stands became excited instantly.

There are players at Villa who know what's going on.

Even if he didn't know, he rushed to Dong Fangzhuo and confronted the Manchester United fans.

Manchester United fans then rushed over and confronted Villa players to protect their own fans.

The place was in chaos.

The Manchester United bench also wanted to go over to support, but as He Tianqi stood up, the Manchester United players just stood up and did not move forward.

In the end, both sides maintained a certain degree of restraint and did not take action.

The referee also took control of the situation.

Dong Fangzhuo was shown the yellow card.

Dong Fangzhuo kept pointing at his eyes and told him that a fan was shining a laser at him.

The referee said he had received the warning, but would not remove the yellow card given to Dong Fangzhuo. He said the English Football Association would investigate the matter after the game and clear Dong Fangzhuo of all charges.

But before that, the game must go on.

"Is this how you, Manchester United, win games?" He Tianqi looked at Ferguson, who was blushing.

The old man hesitated for a long time and couldn't say anything.

This kind of situation where players are dazzled by laser pointers is rare in the Premier League.

All major teams have prevented such phenomena from happening among their own fan groups.

You can even arrange for female fans to dance in the penalty area, but you cannot directly interfere with the players in this way.

"No one wants this to happen," Ferguson replied.

What I mean is, Mr. He, if you are angry, go find that fan, don't attack us. We are all good players who abide by the law and we don't fight.
