I am the king of football

Chapter 364 Relaxed and Happy

"Shut up, everyone!!!"

When the conflicts within Swansea were about to escalate, Laudrup roared on the sidelines. He suddenly realized that compared with Manchester United, who had been suppressed for the entire first half without even a word of internal strife, his players really looked like a group of mob.

"The score was only tied, we haven't lost the game yet. Blaming teammates is cowardly behavior. I don't want to hear any such remarks again!"

Due to the achievements the team has made since Laudrup joined the team, the entire Swansea team still respects their coach very much. After seeing that their coach was really angry, the Swansea players chose to remain silent.

"Everyone come here."

Swansea's formation in this game was a pseudo 4231. The two wingers were more like wingers than wide midfielders, and most of the time they were roaming around in the wing positions. But as everyone got together next to Laudrup, their positions were completely pressed into the position of wide midfielders.

"Control the ball, control the ball, don't rush out and give the opponent a chance to steal the ball, seize the gap after the opponent attacks, we can't lose the ball or make mistakes anymore."

Since it is a home game, Swansea's goal in this game will be counted as a home goal. That is to say, in the next game, even if it is a one-goal battle with Manchester United, Swansea will still lose the game.

All they can do is stop Manchester United from scoring any goals and look for opportunities to deliver a fatal blow to their opponents.

"Believe in your own strength, don't blame your teammates, think about our situation in the first half, boys, we were still the dominant side."

"understand!"

After patting the players who were bending over on both sides of him, Laudrup finally gave everyone some encouragement.

Soon, after Manchester United's celebration ended, the players from both teams returned to the field, and the conflict caused by Swansea's internal strife had temporarily subsided.

"Okay, the two teams have stood up again. The total score is 2-2. Both sides are back on the same starting line. The next minutes will be the critical moment to decide the outcome."

Zhan Jun's voice sounded again, and Swansea team had kicked the ball out again on the field.

The Swans finally did not launch an attack right after the kick-off like they did in the first half. They followed the arrangements of their coach and began to control the ball. The technically-oriented Swans players suddenly began to dance in their positions like white swans.

"I have to say that this season Swansea's home kit is very similar to Real Madrid's home kit. I wonder if the Manchester United players will have a sense of déjà vu."

Seeing that the opponent did not attack, the Manchester United players began to press forward. After more than 60 minutes of fighting, they had an intuitive understanding of the opponent's characteristics. They began to slowly move closer to press the Swansea players.

Yes, this is the best way to target the technically minded Swan. Under such operation, it is impossible for Swansea to control the ball comfortably. The tall and strong Qin Hu became the bridgehead of the team's pressing, and the two sides launched a hand-to-hand fight in each other's midfield.

In the 70th minute of the game, Ferguson waved his hand and started to make substitutions. He did not intend to let the players play another overtime, so he chose to go all in.

Rooney and Hernandez came on as substitutes at the same time, replacing Nani and Valencia respectively. Then Fletcher came on as substitute, replacing Carrick's defensive midfielder position, while Carrick returned to the attacking midfielder position. As for Shinji Kagawa, he was directly replaced after his mediocre performance in this game. As a veteran of the team, Fletcher has not adjusted his condition after returning from injury, but this is only on the premise that Ferguson wants him to be comprehensive. Just as a defensive midfielder to participate in the physical collision in the midfield, this midfielder who has come from the peak era of Manchester United is fully capable of doing so.

As for Rooney and Hernandez, the first instruction they received when they came on the field was to use their bodies to interfere with their opponents.

Of course, considering the characteristics of his style, the instructions that Little Pea received were more likely to disrupt the opponent's defense through running and then wait for opportunities to attack. After all, the team still has to launch an attack after stealing the ball, right?

Time passed by minute by minute, and Manchester United's three substitutions directly increased the team's vitality greatly. Slowly, the Swansea players on the field could not hold on anymore. They began to lose the ball frequently. Qin Hu and Van Persie also began to repeatedly receive passes from their teammates to attack the home team's defense line.

Seeing Qin Hu's shot hit his own crossbar and flew out of the bottom line, Laudrup on the sidelines could no longer sit still.

Compared to Manchester United, which has a strong bench, Swansea's bench really has no players who can reverse the situation, but the physical strength of the starting players has been excessively consumed due to the frequent physical activities, so Laudrup had to make substitutions.

After three substitutions, Swansea's midfield and backfield were strengthened, but the strength of these players was obviously inferior to that of the starting players.

When the game reached the 80th minute, Manchester United's long-term interference and pressing finally paid off, and they gradually became the side in control of the ball on the field.

Carrick, sitting in the midfield, can both defend and output. He frequently sent good balls forward despite the interference of several opponent players. When the game reached the 85th minute, he made a long diagonal pass and passed the ball to Qin Hu who was pulling on the left.

"Qin Hu unloaded the ball with his back to the goalkeeper, and Ben Davis behind him was trying his best to interfere."

Davis kept pushing Qin Hu in front of him, and was prepared to foul him if the opponent forced a turn. However, Qin Hu did not choose to do so this time.

"Pass the ball! Qin Hu passed the ball directly to Rooney who was coming from the left. He began to cooperate with his teammates. After passing the ball, he turned forward. Rooney moved forward smoothly and it was a simple wall pass. Perfect!"

Without much effort, the ball came to Qin Hu's feet again. Taking advantage of the fact that Ben Davis behind him did not follow him, he moved forward along the left penalty area line and knocked the ball directly with his left foot.

"An inverted triangle pass! The ball rolled to the middle, where Van Persie was! He missed the ball! He missed the ball! The two defenders marking him were completely fooled."

With a soul-stirring cross step, Van Persie's operation deceived everyone in Swansea's defense. When Hernandez appeared on the right side of the penalty area, it was too late.

"Little Pea pushed the ball and it went in! In the 88th minute of the game, Manchester United scored a winning goal!!!"

"boom!!!"

There were no more shouts from the Swan fans at the Liberty Stadium. The Manchester United expeditionary force stood up in the stands with great excitement. It was a perfect connection between the team's four forwards and the goal was so refreshing.
