Chapter 295: Extremely silky coordination, the master of rubbing and shooting begins to show his power
"Martin is in great shape!"
"De Gea is also in pretty good shape."
"Beautifully shot and wonderfully blocked!"
Central 5 commentator He Wei said impassionedly: "The next step is Arsenal's corner kick. Manchester United's goal is in danger. De Gea is in good condition, but Martin is in very good condition. Judging from his past performance, it is entirely possible. Score a goal in the game.”
Sky Sports commentator Rio Ferdinand said worriedly: "Louis Van Gaal must think of countermeasures to reverse the unfavorable situation as soon as possible, otherwise according to the state of Arsenal and Martin, after all, David De Gea's state will not be able to continue to be good. ."
The frenetic atmosphere at the new Wembley Stadium remained the same, with Arsenal fans cheering and creating wave after wave of chants.
Looking at the Manchester United fans, in addition to the die-hard fans and foreign Manchester United fans who are constantly cheering and cheering, more local Manchester United fans in England are watching the game like gentlemen, looking very worried.
Manchester United head coach Louis van Gaal was in a hurry. He had made targeted arrangements before the game, but he did not expect to be kicked by Arsenal led by Martin.
Real Madrid coach Zidane in the audience looked thoughtfully at Martin, who was closely guarded in the penalty area.
At a certain moment, he seemed to find a way to deal with Arsenal...
Sanchez once again took a corner kick on the left. Martin was closely marked this time, and the corner kick was not in his coverage area.
Football found Mertesacker, who is 1.9 meters tall, and his header missed the goal post due to Smallin's personal interference.
The danger was over, and the Manchester United fans in the audience and Van Gaal, who was in the technical area directed by the visiting team coach, breathed a sigh of relief.
However, they all know that if they cannot bring enough threats to Arsenal's defense, the frightening feeling of déjà vu will continue to come.
When the broadcast screen showed Van Gaal again, he was pacing from time to time, his brain running at high speed, thinking of ways to solve the current problem.
Madrid's wealthy district.
a mansion.
Ronaldo, who was sitting on the luxurious sofa, looked at Martin who was being explained in a close-up shot, and his expression became solemn.
Previously, he tested Martin through his agent Mendes, but the other party refused directly.
But another answer from Martin made Ronaldo very happy.
[Portugal is no longer the Portugal that has been in decline. I believe in Portugal’s current players. I believe that the final champion of the European Cup in France will be Portugal. 】
Looking at the talented young man who won this year's European Cup against Portugal, Ronaldo couldn't help but focus on the Champions League final at San Siro seven days later.
He has enough confidence in himself and knows that Real Madrid's current teammates are very strong and winning the Champions League final is a piece of cake.
However, the result of a football match ultimately depends on the process. Only by playing the content well can the match be won.
Martin has a strong personal ability to change the situation of the game. Cristiano Ronaldo believes that Martin is the biggest obstacle to Real Madrid winning the Champions League twice in three years.
Although I watched a lot of videos before the game, those are all in the past. Only this game is played in real time, so more observation is necessary.
There are many Real Madrid players watching the live broadcast of the game like Ronaldo.
For example, in the midfielder who is going to play against Martin, Modric, Kroos and Casemiro are all using live broadcasts to learn about Martin's playing habits again to see if they can find his shortcomings.
Even goalkeeper Navas is watching the live broadcast. He wants to see more about Martin's long-range shooting habits.
This midfielder with strong long-range shooting ability will definitely not waste any long-range shooting opportunities.
……
Every Real Madrid player is watching Arsenal, or rather studying Martin.
They all know that Arsenal's only trouble is Martin.
As long as Martin's performance is restricted, winning the Champions League final will be a piece of cake!
New Wembley Stadium.
Manchester United worked very hard to organize the offense, but without Carrick's serial organization, Rooney alone was a bit unable to support it alone.
Van Gaal naturally knew this, but he had no choice.
If you want to gain a say in the midfield, it is very necessary to send two purely defensive midfielders.
It is precisely because of this that organization and creativity will inevitably be lost.
In addition, Rooney is a typical top player in England.
When he was young, he relied on his body as strong as an ox to kill everyone. When he became famous, he began to indulge in drinking and sex. After the age of 30, his body function dropped significantly and his level plummeted. People simply couldn't see the extremely coquettish Fatty Lu back then.
Of course, it also has something to do with personal self-discipline.
Also born in 1985, the older Ronaldo is still shining brightly.
After passing the ball continuously, Rooney, who received the football, shot angrily about 30 meters away from the goal in the middle.
The football that was kicked was very powerful, but the crosshair was not adjusted properly and was far outside the goal post.
Arsenal took a goal kick from the backcourt, and Martin, who dominated the tempo of the game, continued to involve Manchester United's defense, consuming the opponent's energy while looking for gaps.
The combination of Herrera + Fellaini plays an obvious role in the middle. Both are players who run without hesitation and are very defensive.
Football and people, often only one can survive.
In order to maintain the fluidity of the offense, Martin maintains a tactical approach that focuses on controlling the football.
As the game time went on, Arsenal's possession time steadily increased, gradually changing from the original 55 to 64, and not long after, it headed towards 73.
Central 5 commentator He Wei said loudly: "Manchester United's defense in the first three and 10 minutes is certainly good, but we may be very big. The comprehensive defense and the large-scale running of the players will inevitably lead to their possibility of losing in the second half. There’s a crash.”
"This will indeed happen, but Manchester United fans in front of the TV don't need to worry too much. Football is the most uncertain sport in the world. What if Manchester United seizes the opportunity to counterattack?"
Guest commentator Xu Yang said with a smile.
Martin consciously controls the rhythm of the game, but he can't control the whole team like playing a game.
After all, when playing games, there will also be AI activities when players are out of control.
In the 34th minute of the game, Ramsey received the football and caught Sanchez running out of space with his peripheral vision. He should have passed the ball to Martin but chose to pass the ball to Sanchez.
Unexpectedly, the shaggy-haired Fellaini stretched out his long legs during the move, just in time to stop the football, and then quickly handed it to Mata.
Even though Martin has outstanding defensive awareness, there is no way to close the distance with Manchester United's ball-handling players in a short period of time.
Manchester United switched from defense to offense very quickly. Mata received the ball and sent a forward vertical pass directly to the right rib of the defense with a certain amount of advance.
"Rashford!"
Leshi sports commentator Zhan Jun's voice suddenly rose an octave higher.
"aoaoaooaoooo—"
The Manchester United fans in the audience watched the extremely fast Rashford stand out from Arsenal's entire defense and chase Mata's through ball, and their voices suddenly rose an octave higher.
Koscielny didn't hold him back, and could only watch helplessly as Rashford ran faster and faster, and suddenly led Mata's pass forward from the defensive left rib about 35 meters from the bottom line.
Rashford, who was at full speed, touched the ball again and reached the edge of the penalty area on the right side. Facing the high-speed defense, Mertesacker did not hesitate at all. He directly waded the ball into the penalty area and adjusted his steps according to the situation.
Ignoring Ospina who abandoned the goal and blocked the near corner, he completed a high-quality low shot into the far corner from the right rib of the penalty area.
Ospina's descent to the right was obviously half a beat too slow. The football, which was running close to the ground, flew over first, grazed the inner edge of the left goal post, crossed the goal line, and hit the snow-white net...
"Goooooooooooal—"
"Oh My God! Manchester United counterattacks so quickly!"
"Marcus Rashford!"
"Manchester United led Arsenal 1:0 at the New Wembley Stadium with an efficient and fast counterattack!"
"Arsenal is lagging behind, and the next game will definitely become more exciting!"
……
Rashford, who scored the goal, also expressed his joy at scoring the first goal by sliding on his knees to celebrate the goal.
After scoring in the FA Cup final, the overflowing ecstasy was obviously hard to contain.
Martin did not blame Ramsey for not passing the ball, but encouraged his teammates.
It didn’t take long for the game to start, and there was still a lot of time to equalize the score and take the lead.
Ramsey, who was somewhat blaming himself, felt Martin's sincerity, but he still took the initiative to express his responsibility that the ball was his mistake.
Wenger stood up from the coaching bench and went to the technical command area. He shook his head and was somewhat dissatisfied with Ramsey. Just now, Martin obviously reached for the ball but passed the ball to Sanchez who was being marked.
However, it is always difficult to avoid mistakes in football matches. If you want to win the game, you must reduce your own mistakes while catching the opponent's mistakes.
The Manchester United head coach saw Rashford scoring a goal through counterattack, as if he had found the secret to winning, so he was even more determined to adopt a defensive counterattack in this game.
With a one-goal lead, the new Wembley Stadium and the Manchester United fans watching the game live were in high spirits and howled with excitement.
Arsenal fans are not panic at all. In their view, being behind in the score does not mean anything.
Arsenal led by Martin is invincible!
Manchester United, who had taken the lead, became more determined in the defensive counterattack tactics formulated before the game. They focused all their energy on defense first and waited for the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow!
After a brief period of depression, Wenger soon gained absolute confidence in the game.In football matches, one side will score first, but in this game, Manchester United scored first.
When the game restarted, Martin controlled the game more carefully and gave more instructions to his teammates.
Ramsey had previously selectively ignored Martin's request for the ball in order to pass the threatening ball, resulting in a passing error. He blamed himself very much, and his admiration for Martin was much higher.
Obviously, Martin realized something at that time.
Martin, who organized the offense, did not always sort out the situation. He also tried to pass the ball to Sanchez, allowing the Chilean international who was at the peak of his career to find a feeling.
Football matches also require proper blasting.
The diversification of offense makes the opponent elusive, and coupled with changes in rhythm, goals are not far away.
It's just that Manchester United's defense did a good job in the rest of the first half, leaving no gaps for Martin's offense to take advantage of.
Until the end of the first half, the scoreboard still showed Arsenal trailing Manchester United 0:1.
※※※※※
"Who would have thought that Manchester United, which was not favored by others, would end the first half with a one-goal lead over Arsenal?"
Central 5 commentator He Wei looked at the live broadcast of the Arsenal players, most of whom showed depressed expressions, and said loudly: "There are 45 minutes left in the second half. I believe Martin and his teammates will definitely find a way to score."
When the broadcast screen showed Martin with a normal expression talking to Sanchez, Giroud and Ramsey who looked solemn, commentator Xu Yang said in a deep voice: "It seems that Martin is full of confidence in the future of the second half of the game~"
Martin fans who watched the live broadcast of the game said in their hearts: It is necessary!
Visiting team locker room.
The lead brought unprecedented confidence to Manchester United players. Captain Rooney rarely spoke impassionedly about winning: "Everyone said Arsenal is invincible! But the goal in the first half showed that we have the ability to penetrate Arsenal's goal. With our abilities, as long as we seize the opportunity, the FA Cup championship will definitely belong to us!”
Van Gaal also encouraged the players: "Wayne is right, the FA Cup championship will definitely belong to us!"
"The FA Cup championship belongs to us!"
other Manchester United players said in unison.
The end of the first half was certainly tiring, but the result made them feel that everything they had put in was worth it.
If you can win the game in the end, you can even have cramps or even vomit.
Rashford, who scored the goal, was very motivated and thought that he must help the team score more goals in the second half!
At the same time, various TV stations are constantly reviewing the ending of the first half.
Many TV stations/broadcasting organizations concluded based on data that the reason why Manchester United was able to take the lead in the first half was largely because...Martin had not yet exerted his strength.
In the past games, Martin averaged 5.2 shots and 4.5 breakthroughs in the first half.
At the end of the first half, Martin only had 3 shots and 2 breakthroughs.
Almost half less than the draw value.
On the contrary, the number of passes and receptions was much higher than usual.
From this point of view, there is a high probability that it is preparing for the second half.
Martin's thoughts are indeed similar. The main reason is that his ability has grown too fast and he doesn't want Real Madrid, who are bound to watch this game, to capture too much useful information to save energy for the Champions League final.
Putting aside the goals, Manchester United's overall performance in the first half was pretty good, relying on only one counterattack to score.
……
"beep~"
With the whistle of referee Michael Oliver, the second half of the 2015-2016 FA Cup final kicked off.
Arsenal's tactical play in the second half was no different from the first half, which always revolved around control.
Wanting to grab the start of the second half, Manchester United could only passively defend and wait for opportunities to counterattack.
The tactical idea of involving the defense line back and forth only lasted about 5 minutes.
At the fifth and 10th minute of the game, Manchester United's attack ended hastily. Arsenal, who had switched from defense to offense, was tightly marked by Martin and was forced to turn into a positional battle.
Bellerin advanced past half-court with the ball and quickly handed the ball to Martin, who was approaching the right rib.
Rooney immediately pushed forward. Martin changed his idea of passing the ball directly back at the beginning of the second half. The arch of his right foot facing the football suddenly pushed the ball forward, and his whole body followed quickly like an arrow. Go up.
After realizing it, Rooney subconsciously stretched his legs and only kicked a ball of air.
The left midfielder Herrera and the left midfielder Martial pounced at the same time. Martin, who was speeding up the breakthrough, passed the ball to Ramsey, and then suddenly turned to the left.
When Fellaini saw Ramsey stepping on the ball with his right foot, he didn't know what the opponent was going to do?
He decisively kicked through his legs.
Herrera had thought that Martin was going to forcefully accelerate in the ribs, so he used the strength to drink milk.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned a corner...
Martial, who was actively moving in, accelerated decisively, just in time to see Ramsey, who was brought down by Fellaini, pass the ball to Martin, who was walking in, and his feet swung one point faster.
Fellaini, who committed the foul, raised his hands to indicate that he had not committed a foul.
The referee Oliver saw clearly, but taking into account the rule that favorable offense must continue the game, he did not blow the whistle.
Martin, who had already started to speed up, passed Ramsey over and stopped the football forward, making full use of the special effects of his talent [Stop Master], ignoring Martial who was flying horizontally, and followed him like lightning.
"accelerate!"
"Martin used his speed advantage to break through Martial!"
Central 5 commentator He Wei perked up: "He faced Manchester United's entire defense."
The double central defenders Smalling and Rojo were panicked, but they had to face reality after all.
Seeing that Martin was adjusting his steps as he entered the shooting range, the closer left center back Rojo had no choice but to push forward.
At this moment, Martin passed the ball to Giroud who was crowded.
Smalling, who is close behind, knows that the team's defense is very dangerous, so he is ready to foul.
Giroud, who was facing the football, directly used the arch of his left foot to push the football behind the forward Rojo.
Martin, whose speed continued unabated, rushed past Rojo from the left side of his body. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to tug on Martin's jersey, but before he could exert any force, he was forcibly rushed over by a brute force.
"Oops!"
Van Gaal was shocked when he realized that the situation was not good.
Left back Blind wanted to foul, but Martin ran in a very smart direction. He bypassed Rojo and then ran inward, which was equivalent to widening the distance between them, and speed is not his advantage...
"Martin!"
Martin received the ball from Giroud from the front of the penalty area on the right, took the ball forward, and cut into the right rib of the penalty area without losing speed.
De Gea had to abandon the goal and attack.
"wuwuuwuuuu——"
The Manchester United fans at the new Wembley Stadium subconsciously let out a burst of harsh boos, trying to affect Martin's single goal.
Martin, who has the characteristic "calm and composed", didn't pay attention to the sounds from the outside world. He glanced at De Gea out of the corner of his eye and already had a plan in mind.
At the same time, De Gea was also encouraging himself from the bottom of his heart.
In the past, he watched a lot of highlights of Martin's goals, especially long-range shots, single-handed goals and penalty kicks.
Among them, the characteristic of single-handed ball is very obvious, which is to pass the goalkeeper and then kick into the empty goal.
Therefore, he spotted Martin's move and pounced in the opposite direction of the ball.
It goes down very quickly.
Unexpectedly, Martin had no intention of breaking through this time, but...
Make full use of the flexibility of your ankle the moment you touch the ball, and rub the inside of the instep of your right foot toward the bottom of the football.
The flying height of the soccer ball rising from the ground is just as high as an average person's thigh, and the ball speed is also very slow.
Under normal circumstances even an amateur goalkeeper can save the ball.
But the problem is that De Gea's body has fallen to the left...
So, in De Gea's desperate eyes, the football flew past where he was standing and fell towards the unguarded goal...
Arsenal fans at the new Wembley Stadium were on their feet with joy.
In stark contrast were the Manchester United fans, who closed their eyes in pain one by one and covered their foreheads with their hands.
Van Gaal, who was standing in the visiting team coach's technical area, turned around angrily and cursed...
(End of this chapter)
"Martin is in great shape!"
"De Gea is also in pretty good shape."
"Beautifully shot and wonderfully blocked!"
Central 5 commentator He Wei said impassionedly: "The next step is Arsenal's corner kick. Manchester United's goal is in danger. De Gea is in good condition, but Martin is in very good condition. Judging from his past performance, it is entirely possible. Score a goal in the game.”
Sky Sports commentator Rio Ferdinand said worriedly: "Louis Van Gaal must think of countermeasures to reverse the unfavorable situation as soon as possible, otherwise according to the state of Arsenal and Martin, after all, David De Gea's state will not be able to continue to be good. ."

However, they all know that if they cannot bring enough threats to Arsenal's defense, the frightening feeling of déjà vu will continue to come.
When the broadcast screen showed Van Gaal again, he was pacing from time to time, his brain running at high speed, thinking of ways to solve the current problem.

When Fellaini saw Ramsey stepping on the ball with his right foot, he didn't know what the opponent was going to do?
He decisively kicked through his legs.
Herrera had thought that Martin was going to forcefully accelerate in the ribs, so he used the strength to drink milk.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned a corner...
Martial, who was actively moving in, accelerated decisively, just in time to see Ramsey, who was brought down by Fellaini, pass the ball to Martin, who was walking in, and his feet swung one point faster.
Fellaini, who committed the foul, raised his hands to indicate that he had not committed a foul.
The referee Oliver saw clearly, but taking into account the rule that favorable offense must continue the game, he did not blow the whistle.
Martin, who had already started to speed up, passed Ramsey over and stopped the football forward, making full use of the special effects of his talent [Stop Master], ignoring Martial who was flying horizontally, and followed him like lightning.
"accelerate!"
"Martin used his speed advantage to break through Martial!"
Central 5 commentator He Wei perked up: "He faced Manchester United's entire defense."
The double central defenders Smalling and Rojo were panicked, but they had to face reality after all.
Seeing that Martin was adjusting his steps as he entered the shooting range, the closer left center back Rojo had no choice but to push forward.
At this moment, Martin passed the ball to Giroud who was crowded.
Smalling, who is close behind, knows that the team's defense is very dangerous, so he is ready to foul.
Giroud, who was facing the football, directly used the arch of his left foot to push the football behind the forward Rojo.
Martin, whose speed continued unabated, rushed past Rojo from the left side of his body. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to tug on Martin's jersey, but before he could exert any force, he was forcibly rushed over by a brute force.
"Oops!"
Van Gaal was shocked when he realized that the situation was not good.
Left back Blind wanted to foul, but Martin ran in a very smart direction. He bypassed Rojo and then ran inward, which was equivalent to widening the distance between them, and speed is not his advantage...
"Martin!"
Martin received the ball from Giroud from the front of the penalty area on the right, took the ball forward, and cut into the right rib of the penalty area without losing speed.
De Gea had to abandon the goal and attack.
"wuwuuwuuuu——"
The Manchester United fans at the new Wembley Stadium subconsciously let out a burst of harsh boos, trying to affect Martin's single goal.
Martin, who has the characteristic "calm and composed", didn't pay attention to the sounds from the outside world. He glanced at De Gea out of the corner of his eye and already had a plan in mind.
At the same time, De Gea was also encouraging himself from the bottom of his heart.
In the past, he watched a lot of highlights of Martin's goals, especially long-range shots, single-handed goals and penalty kicks.
Among them, the characteristic of single-handed ball is very obvious, which is to pass the goalkeeper and then kick into the empty goal.
Therefore, he spotted Martin's move and pounced in the opposite direction of the ball.
It goes down very quickly.
Unexpectedly, Martin had no intention of breaking through this time, but...
Make full use of the flexibility of your ankle the moment you touch the ball, and rub the inside of the instep of your right foot toward the bottom of the football.
The flying height of the soccer ball rising from the ground is just as high as an average person's thigh, and the ball speed is also very slow.
Under normal circumstances even an amateur goalkeeper can save the ball.
But the problem is that De Gea's body has fallen to the left...
So, in De Gea's desperate eyes, the football flew past where he was standing and fell towards the unguarded goal...
Arsenal fans at the new Wembley Stadium were on their feet with joy.
In stark contrast were the Manchester United fans, who closed their eyes in pain one by one and covered their foreheads with their hands.
Van Gaal, who was standing in the visiting team coach's technical area, turned around angrily and cursed...
