Chapter 1867: Do you understand the value of being the best football player?

The time is locked at 4pm China time on April 1st.

The local time is also April 4st, but the time is 1 pm.

It was a standard early game.

As mentioned before, players are usually in particularly bad shape in early games.

The players from both sides were also very familiar with each other before the game.

Currently West Brom's midfielder Fletcher is a Manchester United youth training player. In addition, Evans, the backbone of the defense, is also a Manchester United player.

It is worth mentioning that Livermore, who just played against Ye Chen in the England-Germany war, is West Brom's midfielder.

So West Brom's configuration is not bad.

West Brom's coach Pulis didn't say anything about turning against the visitors and grabbing the start.

The mentality is very stable and the posture is very low.

As the game started, buses were set up directly at the away stadium.

That posture clearly meant that he wanted to secure a future.

The formation is also a defensive 451 formation.

Among them, Brent, Livermore and Fletcher formed a three-midfielder formation, which directly surrounded the team's abdomen into a bucket - this was also a tactic specially arranged for Ye Chen, not giving him room to kick his feet. !

Manchester United has been affected by injuries and has also made adjustments to its formation.

The previous 4231 has become 433!

Ye Chen suddenly stepped forward, Rashford and Dembele were separated.

The three-midfield arrangement switched to Modric and Carrick partnering Schneiderlin.

Left back Ashley Young, double center back Maguire partnering Rojo, right back Valencia.

The goalkeeper position is still De Gea.

This game is quite crucial for De Gea.

He wants to fight for the Premier League Golden Glove!

At the beginning of the game, Manchester United occupied an absolute advantage on the court, with the ball possession rate approaching 80%!

But West Brom also made targeted arrangements to prevent Ye Chen from hitting the goal near the center circle.

In the previous games, Ye Chen would score from long range whenever he wanted.

But now the opponent doesn't give him a chance to take a long shot at all. As long as he makes a move to shoot, he immediately steps forward to block it.

Faced with this situation, Ye Chen's approach was simple -

Since you won't let me shoot from a long distance, then I will fake a shot and make a real dunk!

Pretend to shoot, but actually break through!

After several breakthroughs, Ye Chen also tried to cooperate with his teammates.

It's a pity that neither Rashford's long shot nor Dembele's sudden shot hit the goal.

Breaking dense defense is a problem that all strong teams need to face.

10 minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

After the strong attack at the beginning, Manchester United also slowed down its pace and began to control the ball in its own half.

Valencia directly passed the ball over the top, trying to find Ye Chen in front.

But Evans made the first header to clear the ball.

Not to mention, Evans was scolded badly when he was at Manchester United.

But after leaving Manchester United, without the pressure of public opinion, his performance became better and better.

After West Brom got the ball, they also started to try to attack.

They gave the ball to McLean on the left side.

McLean directly faced Valencia, who had just made a bad pass.

With a fake move, McLean wanted to force Valencia on the wing.

But Valencia got stuck first, snatched the ball away, and immediately gave it to Maguire, who appeared on the right center back.

Maguire gets the ball and the aircraft carrier starts!

But before he could push forward, the opponent's forward Robson Kanu pounced on him.

The ball can only be given to Carrick who is open.

Carrick made a decisive long pass and accurately found Ashley Young who was sprinting forward.

One characteristic of the full-backs transformed from the left winger is that they have a strong desire to attack.

And his foot skills are also very good.

Ashley Young made a smart stop and started dribbling the ball along the wing.

Rashford took the initiative to respond, and Professor Yang decisively sent the ball to his feet.

Ye Chen in front was surrounded.

After looking at the situation, Rashford decisively chose to cut inside.

In fact, Ye Chen at this time is a bit like Harland in Real Madrid playing Manchester City in the 2023-2024 season.

Because Harland was held tightly by Rudiger, there was no room for movement at all, so he could only attract the attention of the opponent's defense and create opportunities for his teammates!

But what Ye Chen is better than Haaland is...his ability to adapt to changes!

After Rashford cut inside, he volleyed decisively!

However, the football hit Evans!

The ball did not bounce far, but just landed at the feet of Ye Chen on Rashford's left.

At this time, the defense's attention was all on Rashford, and Ye Chen got the best chance to kick off the game!

"Oh!"

Almost in the blink of an eye.

Ye Chen took advantage of the trend and shot with his left foot.

Ben Foster in front of the goal reacted immediately.

But the football got into the goal with lightning speed...

"Shh..."

The defense that had been defending for more than ten minutes collapsed at this moment.

West Brom coach Pulis on the sidelines could only shake his head helplessly.

There are thousands of precautions to be taken, but Ye Chen is hard to guard against!

This guy can really poke a hole with just a little crack!

West Brom's players shook their heads with emotion.

In this tactical meeting, the team spent half an hour talking about Ye Chen's long-range shot.

That means don't give him a chance to kick.

But Rashford's shot like this hit the player and bounced just in front of him...

Before Macaulay had a chance to react, Ye Chen inserted the ball.

What can be done?

However, West Brom's players are still highly unified in their tactical thinking.

Ye Chen must not be allowed to score a second goal.

20 minutes 26 seconds.

Ye Chen once again took a long shot, but Ben Foster held the ball firmly.

The goal just now was able to go in because Ye Chen used the long shot sure-goal card.

If you still want to score goals now, you have to rely on your own ability.

But the angle didn't change.

It's a bit of a pity indeed.

Ben Foster made a short pass to right back Craig Dawson.

Dawson faced Rashford's pressing and passed directly to Evans who was trailing behind.

Ye Chen nodded secretly in his heart. Rashford in the parallel world was influenced and encouraged by him and worked much harder than in his previous life.

And he did not devote himself to charity prematurely. I believe that if he persists in this way, his football achievements will be higher than in his previous life.

The ball quickly came to the feet of Evans, and Manchester United's front team continued to pass the ball to McLean.

But the ball was stolen by Valencia again!

This...the same posture again?

Valencia, who stole the ball, gave the ball to Maguire again, but this time Maguire did not give it to Carrick, but gave it to Rojo who was trailing behind.

Rojo found Schneiderlin with a through ball.

Schneiderlin transitioned to Modric, and in just the blink of an eye, the football circled and reached West Brom's half.

Modric distributed the ball to the left side.

Rashford didn't stop the ball and passed directly into the penalty area!

In the crowd, Ye Chen, who had been adjusting his position, instantly turned into an arrow and passed by Evans.

It can be said that Evans used his hands and feet to interfere with Ye Chen.

But Ye Chen had so much experience in dealing with this kind of player that he immediately reached out and pushed the opponent's hand away!

As soon as he ran into the penalty area, the ball arrived!

"Oh!"

I saw Ye Chen blocking Evans behind him with his body.

The left foot explodes!

At this moment, the super core strength is fully demonstrated!

The football turned into a cannonball again and flew towards the goal corner...

Ben Foster in front of goal was also recently selected for the England national team, but he couldn't compete with Joe Hart.

Of course, Joe Hart can't do anything about his long-range shots, let alone Joe Hart's substitute?

"Shh..."

The net is surging!

This goal is not just a goal, it is a goal that breaks West Brom's inner defense!

Originally, West Brom were determined to take away a point at Old Trafford, but Ye Chen personally used his two-footed world wave to dispel their thoughts.

So what if Manchester United is full of injured soldiers?

As long as Ye Chen is not injured, Manchester United's combat effectiveness will not decline!

Do you understand the value of being a football champion?
