Chapter 318: 7 goals in 2 minutes, sending Chef Fan home
"Smolin, a centre-back was sent off. Manchester United started the game with one less player, and he was still a centre-back! How can we play like this?"
Zhao Yi, standing in front of the penalty kick, glanced at Van Gaal.
Van Gaal was already sitting on the coaching bench, expressionless.
Zhao Yi estimates that another addition will be added to Van Gaal's small ledger.
Aguero was a substitute in this game, and David Silva was supposed to be the second penalty taker.
But Silva doesn't have much enthusiasm for scoring goals.
Zhao Yi was breaking his own record with every goal, so Silva directly gave the ball to Zhao Yi.
Let him take the penalty.
Zhao Yi did not shirk.
De Gea looked at this young man and felt bitter.
His goal-line skills are absolutely number one in the Premier League.
But the few times he faced Zhao Yi, his goal-line skills were not very good.
What Zhao Yi is good at is long-range shooting.
Plenty of strength and angle drilling.
Make it difficult for him to resist.
This time, De Gea stood there with no more confidence.
It is too difficult for a goalkeeper who has lost his confidence to save a penalty kick.
Sure enough, even if De Gea judged the right direction, the football still rushed to the upper right corner of the goal.
Unsurprisingly, it entered the net.
De Gea smashed the lawn and roared.
Zhao Yi was so confident that he was not afraid of kicking the ball away. The angle he found and the speed of the ball made it a nightmare for the goalkeeper.
Vigorously miracle.
"There is no good way. Zhao's penalty kick...it can be said that all his shots have this characteristic. His pursuit of power seems to be paranoid. Unless he misses the kick himself, it will be really difficult to save it!"
Manchester City leads 1:0 at home!
Manchester United will have one less player to play in the next period.
For Manchester United, this game is tantamount to the beginning of hell! "
In the same city derby, Manchester United fans were sitting in a sea of blue, listening to the cheers of their opponents, and watching the opponent players hugging each other in celebration, not to mention how depressed they were.
Van Gaal did not make any substitutions. Unless the goalkeeper was sent off at this time, substitutions would not be made easily.
Now the defense is left with Rojo, Blind and Damian.
We can only hold on for about half a game.
Manchester United is trying to slow down the pace, which can reduce physical consumption and make up for the disadvantage of playing one less player to the greatest extent.
However, Manchester City players did not give them such a chance.
Manchester City's frontcourt was pressing, and the backcourt players also began to move forward to support.
This makes it impossible for Manchester United to conduct smoothly in the backcourt.
After receiving the ball, Schweinsteiger could only move forward to find his teammates in the frontcourt.
He doesn't dare to pass forward easily at this position.
The ball was passed directly to Stones by Otamendi.
After Stones got the ball, he didn't pass it at all. Instead, he immediately dribbled the ball forward.
This is what Guardiola likes about Stones.
He is young and confident, and his ability with the ball is quite good.
Faced with Mata's interception, Stones successfully passed Mata and continued to dribble forward.
By the time Carrick tried to delay Stones' advance, it was already too late.
Stones played a through ball and David Silva received the ball.
Before Bastian Schweinsteiger was in position, there was a small gap in Manchester United's defense in the middle.
Without a central defender, Manchester United's defense has a big problem.
This gap is enough for David Silva to do a lot of things.
After he caught the ball, he hit the ball through the ball.
Fast and urgent.
Blind is very strong in frontal defense, but he doesn't have much to do with the ball from behind.
When he realized the problem and turned around, it was already difficult to catch up with the football.
Football has appeared two steps ahead of Zhao Yi.
Rojo on the side risked his life to intercept.
Zhao Yi, who was following, was blocked behind him.
He didn't even get a chance to make a tackle!
De Gea's timing of the attack was somewhat poor. When he rushed up to surround Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi had already poked the ball away.
Poor De Gea did a big split, the ball grazed his toes and rushed towards the goal post close to the ground!
In the dismay of all Manchester United fans, the football hit the goal post and bounced into the goal!
"yeah!!!"
"yes!!!"
In the Etihad stands, the fans, who were always ready to cheer for the goal, became excited again.
They cheered and faced their rivals from the same city. Within seven minutes of the opening, they were already leading by two goals!
"Manchester United's defence, without a central defender, is a huge problem!
Zhao, who returned to the center position... was so comfortable playing Manchester United.
It's as simple as me kicking my son.
Manchester United is full of defensive holes.
This is how to do ah? ? "Gary Neville sighed. It was only seven minutes, and Zhao Yi shot every shot, making Manchester United so embarrassed. How should Manchester United deal with it in the next more than 80 minutes?
Shouldn't you be humiliated the whole time?
The Manchester United fans sat there in silence.
They sense something is going to happen.
Something big is about to happen!
This may be even worse than the first derby.
Manchester United and Van Gaal are both doomed...
After Silva and Zhao Yi high-fived, the two hugged each other.
David Silva's passing is indeed very penetrating.
All Zhao Yi has to do is hold on to the defender and send the ball into the net.
This is an ability that every qualified center should have.
Aguero sat on the bench, a little unhappy.
He shouldn't take a break.
It's not easy to have such a soft persimmon at home.
But he couldn't play.
The contrast between the two head coaches is particularly sharp.
Van Gaal was speechless and dejected.
It's time to finish.
I can no longer record it in the small ledger.
Maybe I really have to be fired and become an accountant.
Guardiola smiled happily, this was far more perfect than he imagined.
In less than ten minutes, it was already a two-goal lead.
Moreover, Manchester United is not only missing one player, but also has no tactics at all.
There was no cooperation in the frontcourt and frequent mistakes in the backcourt.
What did they do to take away points at the Etihad?
"Hey hey hey..."
"Van Gaal is out of class this time!"
"Before the game, there was someone who was bragging about Manchester United..."
"Smolin is here to be funny, Manchester United is here to be the clown!"
"I lost five in the first round, and I'm going to lose ten this time!"
"Let Mourinho come quickly, Chef Fan, don't embarrass yourself!"
"Xiao Zhao returned to the center and exploded like this???"
"There hasn't been a talent in thousands of years. If one does, he will be at the level of the universe!!!"
"Quick, score two more to send Manchester United home, and send Chef Fan home!!"
Fans throughout the Premier League and China are laughing at Manchester United.
Manchester United under Chef Fan has become the laughing stock of Europe.
Manchester United, which lost Ferguson, became a down-and-out giant that was bullied by everyone in the Premier League.
This season, they can't even compete for a Champions League spot.
The top three, Manchester City, Leicester City, and Arsenal are already far ahead.
Manchester United can only compete with Tottenham for fourth place, but there is still a big gap.
Next season basically we can only go to the Europa League.
