Chapter 294: Everything has a first time, including Ronaldo!

After just a night of thinking, Ricardo had figured out the priorities for training - naturally, the current tactical needs of the club came first!

At the beginning of the game, Sir Alex Ferguson arranged Ricardo to play as a left back, so dribbling, crossing and explosiveness were very important;

However, with Scholes injured and Hargreaves' recent minor injuries, Ricardo has been deployed more in the middle of the midfield, that is, passing the ball, protecting the ball on the spot, intercepting and long shots, etc.

Of course, physical fitness is very important.

So taking the greatest common divisor, Ricardo decided to focus the training items of recent private lessons on passing, dribbling and physical fitness. Among them, the focus of passing is long passes and crosses, and the focus of dribbling is to get rid of the opponent on the spot and change direction while moving.

After informing Lopez's team of his decision via email, he left it to them to come up with a specific training plan.

Before the weekend race, Ricciardo also experienced an updated training session, which seemed to be quite good;

I can indeed feel that I am still a little weak or not adapted in some aspects and need further intensive training.

In addition, this new training program also includes half an hour of sports rehabilitation content, with the help of some equipment to help Ricardo relieve strain and tension in key parts such as muscles, knees, ankles and ligaments.

And these sports rehabilitation contents come from Liana, who took over Emma Watson's class and came to Manchester this week to meet with B man Li.

Liana studied every part of Ricardo's body very carefully, and fully understood Ricardo's strengths and durability. She combined Manchester United's daily training courses with Lopez's team's private training courses to tailor-make sports rehabilitation content for Ricardo...

Anyway, Ricardo only praised the good things after he had the orgasm, saying that he really felt that his muscles and ligaments were not as tight, and his joints were also a lot more comfortable.

Seeing that the sports rehabilitation part received highly positive comments from Ricardo, Isabel López naturally wanted to learn it, because Isabel was usually responsible for Ricardo's health therapy.

But Liana looked at Isabel, who was wearing a lotus pink yoga tights, had a great body and the charm of a mature woman, and subconsciously rejected her;

After all, these rehabilitation exercises still require some strength, so it is better for his brother Fernando Lopez to learn and provide subsequent service to Ricardo.

Isabel was stunned when she heard that, then she curled her lips. Looking at the petite Liana who was wearing square-framed glasses and a long purple sportswear, she knew that this girl was protecting her food.

That's not surprising. After all, the little fairies are greedy for Ricardo's body. If they can't eat it, it's good to rub it a few times...

And if brother Fernando has learned it, doesn’t that mean sister Isabel has learned it too?

After all, Isabel is the one in charge of the health therapist position in the team, so it's just one more procedure and it won't be a problem.

So Isabel hugged her slightly exaggerated and firm pectoral muscles, and watched with a smile as Liana taught and explained to her brother Fernando: Haha, what's the difference?

It's just like covering one's ears and stealing the bell!

2008年1月12日下午17时15分，07/08赛季英格兰足球超级联赛第22轮的比赛，红衣白裤的曼联在主场老特拉福德球场迎战黑白间条的纽卡斯尔，一触即发！

曼联近26个主场对阵纽卡斯尔取得20胜6平保持不败，纽卡斯尔上次在老特拉福德球场取胜还要追溯到1972年2月。

Manchester United have remained unbeaten in their last 12 games with 10 wins and 2 draws.

双方在英超交锋28场，曼联16胜9平3负占据上风，其中主场9胜5平，心理优势十分明显。

The two sides have played 146 games in history, with Manchester United having the upper hand with 73 wins, 34 draws and 39 losses.

In terms of the starting lineup, Sir Alex Ferguson replaced Brown, who was suspended for accumulating yellow cards, with O'Shea. Lizzie, Rooney and Tevez replaced Anderson, Park Ji-sung and Saha in the starting lineup, and Ronaldo returned to the left forward.

As for Newcastle, Alan Smith and Butt will face their former club.

Manchester United's starting lineup is a 4-4-2 parallel formation:

The goalkeeper is No. 1 goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar;

The defense line continues to use the main lineup, No. 22 O'Shea, No. 15 Vidic, No. 5 Ferdinand and No. 3 Evra;

The midfield quartet returned to the regular starting lineup with the most appearances this season, No. 7 Cristiano Ronaldo, No. 16 Carrick, No. 17 Li Qi and No. 11 Giggs;

The two strikers are No. 10 Rooney and No. 32 Tevez.

It can be said that the right-back position is determined. This lineup should be the strongest lineup of Manchester United at this stage in Sir Alex Ferguson's mind.

With all the main players on the field, playing at home and with a 6-day break, Manchester United was like a tiger out of a cage after the kick-off!

Less than three minutes into the game, Rooney received a diagonal pass from Li Qi and broke through to the right side of the penalty area. He made a threatening shot from 16 yards away from the goal! Unfortunately, the ball hit the crossbar in the far corner of the goal and flew out of the bottom line.

Three minutes later, Manchester United had another good chance to score.

Li Qi passed the ball in the middle, Ronaldo dribbled forward on the right and suddenly passed it sideways. Rooney chested the ball at the edge of the other side of the penalty area, and then volleyed it!

The ball had great force but a bad angle and went straight to the center of the goal, where it was caught by goalkeeper Given.

Then five minutes later, after Newcastle's Duff's cross was cleared, Manchester United launched a quick counterattack.

This time it was Tevez who received a long pass from Li Qi and set up a shot for Rooney who was following up in the middle. However, this time Rooney's low shot from the edge of the penalty area was again blocked by Given's diving hand...

In the 15th minute, Manchester United launched another quick counterattack. Carrick made a long pass, and Ronaldo headed the ball to Rooney on the left side of the enemy penalty area. He did not stop the ball 15 yards in front of the goal and volleyed it in the first time!

The ball went straight towards the goal like a cannonball, but unfortunately Given flew to save it!

OK, 15 minutes, four shots in a row, the test is complete. Although in good shape, Lu Xiaopang didn't bring his shooting boots today, so there's no need to feed him any more goals.

Substitution, oh no, it's a substitution to complete the shot, and Fat Lu will be the one to contain the opponent instead.

And this sentence does not need to be said publicly, and even eye contact is not needed for confirmation. After all, the Magic Sound Quartet has a tacit understanding between them.

So in the next offensive round, the main attacker changed.

Before the game started, the four had already decided on the order. Rooney would be fed first because he was a local English resident and had scored the fewest goals among the four.

The second one, of course, is...

In the 21st minute, Carrick passed the ball to the wing, and O'Shea made a cross from the right, but the ball passed Rooney who was trying to score in the middle and the high point of the visiting team's defense, and fell into the control range of Tevez who was ambushing at the far end.

But Tevez did not blindly shoot at a small angle. After all, due to the interference of the defensive players, the probability of the shot going wide was too high.

The most important thing was that Tevez heard the shout from the top of the penalty area: "Carlos, here!"

So Tevez, without even looking back, kicked the ball back in the air and sent it in a triangle shape back to the top of the middle of the penalty area. Li Qi, who was responsible for the forward connection in the middle, had just arrived and was about to kick the ball in the air!

People who know Li Qi know that he is most likely just bluffing. This scumbag who is surprisingly consistent in bed and off the court likes nothing more than not ejaculating. Oh no, it's a fake ejaculation!

However, Newcastle's defense, at least the two central defenders Taylor and Kakapa, have not fully understood the nature of this scumbag Li Qi. Seeing his realistic shooting posture, the two of them flew over to block the hole!

So, seeing the two of them taking the bait, Li Qi changed his shot to a push, faked a shot and passed the ball, sending the ball from behind Kakapa into the left side of the Magpie penalty area...

And that position is exactly where Ronaldo cuts in and makes his move forward!

Ronaldo made a high-speed run forward, took a step forward with the ball, faced Given who was charging forward, and calmly shot the ball with his right foot into the near corner!

The ball had a slight arc, just passing over Given's outstretched left leg, and flew into the bottom left corner of the goal!

Hook! Hook! Hook! Hook! Hook!

The live DJ screamed crazily!

With Li Qi's assist and Ronaldo's first goal, Manchester United broke the deadlock first, 1-0!

It seems that Ronaldo is not only in great shape today, but his shooting boots are also in great shape!

Manchester United's positional attack directly stunned Newcastle's defense. Until goalkeeper Given fished the ball out of the net and kicked it to the midfield, the Magpies' defense seemed to have not recovered yet, because Manchester United's offensive organization was not only fast, but also extremely smooth...

First from the middle to the side, then from the right to the left wing, bypassing Rooney who was responsible for containing the feint attack.

Then from the left to the middle; don't be fooled by Tevez's ugly appearance, oh no, sorry, he looks fierce, but this volley with his foot back is extremely chic.

Finally, he actually kicked it back to the right rib from the middle;

Facing Tevez's inverted triangle pass, with such a large space in the middle, it is definitely a good opportunity to volley. Any normal man would be unable to resist shooting!

But no one expected that the scumbag Li Qi could be so cowardly that he could even hold back from shooting, and he also deceived the feelings of Newcastle's defense and countless spectators and fans. This bastard held back his strength and gave Ronaldo a nanny-like assist.

But the audience still gave thunderous applause to Manchester United's almost impeccable offensive coordination. The DJ on the scene almost pulled his voice hoarse, and Sir Alex Ferguson was so excited on the sidelines that he almost chewed bubbles out of his gum!

Not to mention that Li Qi completed the KPI of assisting his good friend ahead of schedule, and gained the friendship index, as well as rewards such as autographed photos and a luxurious buffet.

The Magic Sound Quartet has already started the first live performance without physical instruments. This time the four of them are still coordinating and playing different instruments. If anyone asks, they will definitely say in unison: "We are playing the Radetzky March!"

Although 75% of the four little geese may not know what the "Radetzky March" is, they have only briefly listened to the trial version that Li Qi played for them on his mobile phone, and they thought it was pretty good and festive...

Although Manchester United's goal was very exciting, the visiting team Newcastle had no choice but to accept it, but after all, the game had just begun and it was too early to surrender;

What's more, the Magpies also have offensive players such as Milner, N'Zogbia, Duff and England's former golden boy Owen.

So after the restart, the Magpies tried to attack, suppress Manchester United and equalize the score.

But this just fulfills Manchester United's wish. They were afraid that you wouldn't come out of your hole. Now that you come out, we can just counterattack!

In the 26th minute, Manchester United got a chance to counterattack;

Unexpectedly, Li Qi did not pass the ball to Ronaldo who was advancing at high speed but was double-teamed by two people. Instead, he passed the ball to Giggs who was lurking on the left wing. The latter dribbled the ball into the empty space on the right side of the opponent's penalty area.

Tevez cut in diagonally, stopped the ball, turned around and shot a powerful shot, but unfortunately the ball was blocked by Kakapa who returned to defense in time and went out of the baseline.

In the 29th minute, after Newcastle's attack failed, Li Qi intercepted the ball in front of his own penalty area and launched a counterattack again.

Li Qi and Giggs played a wall-to-wall combination to bypass N'Zogbia and Butt who tried to foul and intercept at the first attempt, and then sent a long-distance pass to Ronaldo who ran into the open space with the help of Rooney's cover.

After receiving the ball on the right side, Ronaldo advanced at high speed and made his way into the left side of the opponent's penalty area. However, when Ronaldo dodged the last defender and prepared to cut inside and shoot with his left foot, he was knocked down into the penalty area by Taylor who lost his balance!

But the referee refused to award a penalty, believing that Taylor just lost his balance and it was not a deliberate foul. In addition, the ball was out of control before Ronaldo kicked the ball.

Shit! Isn't this because he is preparing to shoot?! He will definitely push half a step further so that he can draw the bow and shoot!

The referee's decision and explanation were not convincing. Not only was Ronaldo dissatisfied, but his Manchester United teammates also found it unacceptable. Sir Alex Ferguson complained loudly on the sidelines, and the fans at the scene also gave deafening boos.

But the visiting team didn't care and quickly kicked off in an attempt to equalize the score. However, Duff's powerful shot from 25 yards was slightly off the upper right corner, and Milner's long shot from the top of the penalty area was also saved by Van der Sar.

Manchester United, feeling that they were treated unfairly, also started to get angry, showing an look and momentum that showed they would not give up until they defeated the visiting team and made the referee look bad in public.

The first to open fire was the local Benlu Xiaopang!

This guy is in really good shape. He nimbly stopped Li Qi and made a wide-range lateral pass. He stepped on the ball and pulled back through the crotch to dodge Bart's interference.

Then he passed the ball to Kakapa who was assisting in defense, but the latter couldn't stop Rooney from advancing into the penalty area.

However, Lu Xiaopang did not bring his shooting boots in this game. He scored a perfect 90 points for stopping the ball and dribbled past two people. Then after entering the penalty area, he faced the goalkeeper who came out and made an unexpected lob shot!

Unfortunately, the ball not only went over the crossbar, but also missed the target...

The three little geese shook their heads, and Rooney leaned against the goalpost in frustration, shaking his head helplessly and mocking himself: He was really as fierce as a tiger, but the record was zero and five! Five chances at the beginning, all missed!

Forget it, we can’t see Lu Xiaopang today. Today he will just transform into Winnie the Pooh and can only be a mascot to cover for everyone.

Just after Winnie the Pooh missed the opportunity, Newcastle on the other side really seized the opportunity and scored a goal.

However, the linesman believed that Owen, who scored the goal with a single shot, was offside when Milner made the pass. Even though he was almost parallel to Vidic, he was protruding a part of his body that shouldn't be protruding!

This fake draw also sounded a wake-up call for the entire Manchester United team. They need to work harder and not fall into the gutter...

So in the last period of the first half, Manchester United launched a series of attacks and bombarded Newcastle's goal.

In the 41st minute, Ronaldo received a pass from Li Qi and shot from 25 yards on the right, but Given bravely saved the ball.

However, the ball was not cleared far away and was grabbed by Rooney, who was in good form in this game except for shooting!

However, Winnie the Pooh's follow-up shot facing the empty goal from 8 yards in front of the goal on the left side of the penalty area was blocked by Carl who flew back to defense without hesitation and used his big buttocks to block the ball out of the baseline!

Then Giggs took a corner kick from the left side. Ronaldo took advantage of Li Qi's single block to go around the front point, jumped high in the corner of the small penalty area, and headed the ball!

The ball went straight to the near corner, and the goalkeeper was unable to react in time...

However, Butt, who was guarding the near corner of Newcastle, miraculously raised his head and used his face to block Ronaldo's header, which was sure to go in, on the goal line!

However, blocking the ball with the face can only solve the immediate problem, but cannot resolve the fundamental problem, and the ball is still lingering in front of Newcastle's goal.

This time, Rooney, who was in excellent form in addition to shooting, took the lead in grabbing the ball again. However, this time Winnie the Pooh did not choose to try to shoot himself. Instead, he used his back to hold off two defenders and passed the ball back to Tevez who was lurking on the edge of the penalty area.

The latter met the ball and shot it into the far corner! The ball drew an arc, bypassed Rooney's defender who flew over to block it, and went straight to the upper left corner of the goal!
