Chapter 548 It’s Not that You Are Not Strong, but that He Is Too Good

"Sofia Levski's team has no fighting power at all. Tonight is their last chance, but I think they are just a final struggle. They don't even have a chance to participate in the UEFA Cup."

"It's just, why don't Ronaldo and Rooney start?" Lineker sat in the live broadcast room and really couldn't understand what Ferguson was doing.

seek death!

That was his first reaction.

Although Sofia Levski is a rookie, he is playing at home anyway. Ferguson dismantled the trident in one fell swoop. Isn't this suicidal and asking for death?

"In case of a tie or loss..."

"I can't figure it out."

Lineker kept shaking his head.

The Manchester United fans in front of the TV are also thinking that no matter what they think, Ferguson should not have removed Rooney and Ronaldo, and replaced them with Giggs and Rossi.

The other positions are no different from the previous starters.

"What the hell are you guys? Sir Alex obviously wants to tell the news media that the current Manchester United can win even if Ronaldo and Rooney are not on the court, as long as Dong Fangzhuo is on the court."

Chinese fans are the smartest, and they guessed Ferguson's thoughts immediately. The British think about things too simply...

"It's no problem if the bet wins, but it's troublesome if the bet loses. But I believe there is no problem with Manchester United's lineup."

The starting lineup given by Manchester United is goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, the back line is Neville, Vidic, Ferdinand, and Evra, the midfielder is Carrick, Modric and Scholes, and the striker line is from left to right. It's Giggs, Dong Fangzhuo and Rossi.

In fact, Ronaldo and Rooney were replaced.

It was indeed a bit depressing for the two of them to sit on the bench. They came all the way to Bulgaria and ended up sitting on the bench? In such a crucial game, what does Ferguson mean?

The two of them were half leaning on their chairs in boredom, without any energy at all. It was impossible for them to guess what Ferguson was thinking.

"Look, we must play in the second half." Ronaldo crossed his legs and murmured, obviously dissatisfied with Ferguson's arrangements.

"Yes……"

Rossi, who started the game, was very excited. This was his first Champions League start. He walked onto the field behind Dong Fangzhuo. He felt full of energy, but his face was red, and he might be a little nervous.

Dong Fangzhuo took one look and said: "Don't be nervous, just play like you do in the Premier League, as long as you play resolutely! Is the Bulgarian team better than the Premier League team?"

Beep——

The game officially started. Dong Fangzhuo passed the ball to Rossi. Rossi very carefully passed the ball to Modric, for fear that he would lose the ball.

Modric played with Carrick in the backcourt to control the rhythm and did not rush to attack.

The ball ran in Manchester United's midfield and backfield for a few minutes before he discovered that Sofia Levski was not pressing the offensive center at all, and then he picked up the team's rhythm.

Maybe Sofia Levski's players also feel that they have no hope in the Champions League and are giving up on themselves?

Modric pushed the ball to the right, and Rossi received the ball with his right foot. He cut the ball past the opponent with a violin pull, and then dribbled the ball down the bottom. However, he did not control the intensity when passing the ball, and the ball flew directly past Sofia. Levski's back point ran out of the baseline.

It seemed that the tension in him had not completely disappeared.

Ronaldo on the bench immediately frowned, with a trace of ridicule flashing in his eyes. Rossi is very good, but Rossi is still a long way behind him. He has always been a little careless in crosses, but even so, his level of crosses is much higher than Rossi's...

However, Manchester United was very strong, and Sofia Levski was unable to organize an attack to reach Manchester United's backcourt, so Manchester United's offensive was overwhelming. Just after one minute, Carrick passed the ball over the top, and Rossi's flexible figure once again grabbed the ball. Get the ball before the opponent's defender.

This time Rossi learned the lesson wisely and chose a ground ball pass! It’s just that the ball has been passed,

But the defense in the middle was too intensive, and Dong Fangzhuo had no chance to touch the ball. Rossi's cross was not successful at all.

Or maybe, he can try not to pass and cut inside the middle? Dong Fangzhuo felt that Rossi still didn't let go. If Ronaldo was here, he would not blindly pass the ball. He would more often dribble the ball and cut into the middle, and then create shooting opportunities for his teammates or himself.

Walk over quickly.

"Hey, be confident. You can also choose to cut inside. You don't have to pass the ball to me and play like Cristiano. Get rid of the pressure, otherwise you won't be able to play." He didn't want to see his younger brother play. Play a bad game.

But his teammates are not going to give Rossi so many opportunities. This is not a training ground.

Soon, Modric and Carrick moved the ball in the direction of Giggs, and Manchester United's offense began to focus on the left.

Needless to say about veterans like Giggs, an experienced guy plays a rookie team and knows how to play. Giggs has been a substitute in almost every game this season, and his fighting spirit is quite strong.

If you didn't know his age, you wouldn't know he was in his thirties.

In the 7th minute, Modric went straight to the left. Giggs flicked his right foot and quickly moved his body to the middle. The opponent's right back was deflated. Dong Fangzhuo immediately pulled to the right and helped him take away a central defender. Gus finds space and takes a shot!

But he is not left-footed, and his right-footed shot missed the post...

Although the ball did not go in, Giggs's behavior of easily getting the ball into the penalty area seemed so calm. This is the performance of a mature and experienced player. On the other hand, Rossi just now was much worse.

Sofia Levski kicked the ball out, but it was intercepted by Carrick. Carrick made a lateral transfer and the ball fell at the feet of Scholes. Scholes dribbled the ball in the backcourt from the left to He went all the way to the penalty area of ​​Sofia Levski on the right, raised his right foot, and pretended to shoot. The opponent's midfielder flashed, only to find that Scholes had stuffed the ball into the left side of the penalty area.

Giggs again!

This time Giggs did not choose to shoot, but swept the pass to the center with his left foot. Dong Fangzhuo blocked the opponent's central defender behind him while running, and shot the ball with his left foot.

Bo——

The ball went from close to the turf into the near corner of Sofia Levski's goal!

"goooooal!"

"goooooooooooooooooooooal!"

"The ball was hit very resolutely and accurately. This is a vivid display of superb shooting skills."

"If this opportunity is given to any forward, he may not be able to score the goal. I can only say that there is a probability, but Dong's probability is definitely not low! Under normal circumstances, if the ball is not saved, it may hit the side netting. , but Dong can score goals, don’t you accept it?”

"He is always able to convert ordinary passes from his teammates into goals!"

"It's not that you are not strong, it's that he is too good!" 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our reading academy
