Chapter 2514: New Scholes showing off? Rashford has a great one-on-one opportunity!
In fact, in terms of paper strength, the two sides are almost the same.
The German team's defense is indeed inferior to that of its opponents.
But as long as Ye Chen is in the starting lineup, who dares to underestimate them?
After the simple pre-match ceremony, the competition officially begins!
The referee for today's match is the famous French referee Tilpin.
It can be seen that UEFA attaches great importance to a competition of this level.
England kicks off first!
I really want to win though.
But Southgate's tactical thinking has not changed much.
Hide first.
Stay safe and fight back!
England is a team that focuses on defensive counterattacks and set-piece tactics, and anyone who has watched the Premier League knows that the players they choose are all fast horses.
In addition, Germany has completed its technological transformation in recent years.
Midfielders Wang Chu, Gundogan and Goretzka are all technical midfielders.
It was easy to deal with those rough guys in England.
Of course, Wang Chu and Gundogan both play for Manchester City and have dealt with this group of Premier League players.
So there is no need to adapt at all.
It was easy to take control of the ball.
England's fans are not in a hurry.
They sang the Beatles' "Heyjude" on the spot to cheer for their team.
The atmosphere was quite good.
20 minutes 02 seconds.
After left-back Schultz took the ball, he crossed the half court.
But Sancho was very active in chasing back.
Schultz, who was unable to easily get rid of his opponent, decisively passed the ball horizontally to Wang Chu.
Wang Chu made a straight pass and accurately found Ye Chen in the frontcourt.
As soon as Ye Chen and I returned to the court, that familiar feeling came over me.
The tacit understanding between the two is invisible and intangible, but better than others.
Ye Chen carried Stones behind him and didn't do any fancy fake moves.
Push the ball to your left.
Then he turned quickly and followed the football.
"Oh!"
The football turned into a cannonball and flew straight towards the goal.
Maguire in the penalty area immediately came over to assist in defense.
The action is fast.
But it's no use!
Because the speed of the football is faster.
Pickford in front of the goal was instantly in the air.
"Shh!"
But football is like a ray of light!
Straight into the net!!
The German fans at the scene jumped up in an instant as if a volcano had erupted.
"Goooooooooooal!!!"
Accompanied by the commentator's shout.
Passion bursts out at this moment!
This ball came too suddenly!
Everyone thought that Ye Chen was holding on to the opponent in order to pass the ball back and look for another opportunity.
But it was a fleeting opportunity and Ye Chen shot the ball into the goal!
After scoring the goal, Ye Chen happily rushed to the sidelines and slid on his knees in a handsome manner.
The fans cheered even louder!
Dudu in the stands also clenched his fists, "Mom, I said that daddy playing football is the most beautiful!"
"Yeah, I think so too!" Lina nodded with a smile.
Xiao Yeyi's little head next to him was thinking quickly.
I can pass the ball, but can my teammates score it?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ye looked at Ye San.
"Brother, the offensive work is up to you!"
Ye San was still smiling at this time.
Obviously, he didn't expect that Xiao Yeyi had given him the most important task -
It is reasonable for Germany to take the lead.
The England players were more helpless.
After all, there is really nothing we can do with a ball like this.
They didn't lose their position and they didn't have any defensive loopholes.
Goals that are purely based on personal ability are hard to defend against.
Now they can only rely on their teammates' goals!
25 minutes 52 seconds.
Sterling got the ball on the left and after dribbling to the end line, he did not force a cross.
Rashford in the middle is just average at heading.
So he chose to pass back.
Chilwell, who followed up and currently plays for Leicester City, cut inside very confidently after getting the ball.
Wait for Wang Chu in the middle to come over to assist.
Then he tiptoed and passed the ball to Rice next to him.
After these two seasons, Rice has become a capable general.
The moment you get the ball.
Make instant judgments.
"Oh!"
The football turned into a cannonball and flew to the right!
Neuer in front of the goal dived sideways instantly.
"Snapped!"
"Duang!"
After the football was hit, it hit the post and bounced out of the baseline.
It can be seen how powerful this long shot is.
Countless England fans held their heads and sighed.
If it was an ordinary goalkeeper, the ball would have gone through the net!
Of course, this scene is very common to Manchester United fans.
Last season, Rice scored six Premier League goals with long-range shots, and with four cup goals, his total number of goals directly reached double digits.
It is very rare for a midfielder to have such data!
Rice, who missed the opportunity, held his head in his hands.
He also wanted to show off his skills in front of Brother Chen.
You know, in order to practice this long shot, he practiced a lot with Ye Chen last year.
Ye Chen also taught without hiding his shortcomings.
This is how England got its “new Scholes”!
Of course, if he becomes famous in Chelsea, he will be the new Lampard, and if he becomes famous in Liverpool, he will be the new Gerrard.
Because the last Manchester United midfielder was Scholes, Rice has an additional title like this.
The last threatening attack in the first half was at 44 minutes and 04 seconds.
England's Sancho passed the ball to Rashford from the right.
But once in the penalty area, it is under Neuer's control.
Easy to take off.
Neuer was not in a hurry. He waited until both players left the penalty area before passing the ball to Hummels.
Hummels got the ball and kicked it to the right immediately.
Sane on the wing took the ball and rushed forward.
But Chilwell's speed is not slow at all.
Forcefully fell down to make a tackle while competing in speed.
He then shoveled the ball to Barkley in the middle.
Barkley came on as a substitute in the Europa League final, and after a period of rest, he is in his best form.
But at this moment, Goretzka was in front of him, rushing towards him like crazy.
This was clearly an attempt at a tactical foul.
"Boom!"
But before Goretzka committed the foul, he passed the ball to Rice.
When Rice saw the ball coming, he immediately passed it straight to the goal.
"Boom!"
The football stuck to the grass and quickly rushed forward.
The German team was just attacking with all their members, but the sudden loss of the ball forced them to switch from offense to defense instantly.
But this is where the track and field team came into play.
Rashford in front quickly changed direction and accelerated in a straight line.
The man rushed between the two central defenders.
The ball also arrived!
"Barkley was brought down!"
"Gretzka deserves a yellow card for this ball!"
However, the commentator had not finished speaking.
"Rice passes the ball!"
"Rashford has a one-on-one chance!"
Neuer in front of the goal is very fast.
Like a gust of wind, rushing out from its position!
As the world's number one goalkeeper.
His coverage area is the largest!
But looking at the attacking Neuer, Rashford had the scene of Ye Chen passing the goalkeeper in his mind.
"Boom!"
Push the ball directly to the left.
Want to speed up and pass Neuer!
"call--"
Neuer quickly fell to the ground and slapped the football with one hand——
