Chapter 623
: The person who stood up unexpectedly
Arsenal launched a striking offensive after the start of the second half, but in the face of Ferguson's adjustment and response, it was quickly curbed. Arsenal's offensive gradually faded, and the two sides once again fell into a stalemate of the game.
The booing in the stands at the Highbury Stadium was shocking. Arsenal fans were very dissatisfied with the current situation of the game. The game was dull and the score was 1:1. The home team fans could not see any advantages and the possibility of goals at the moment. They became impatient.
Of course, the booing at Highbury Stadium at this time can also be understood as their strong dissatisfaction with Manchester United's conservative tactics.
The camera is giving Arsenal's bench, Flamini, who has finished warming up, returns to the bench, and assistant coach Pat Rice is giving him a tactical explanation.
At the same time, on the court, Park Ji-sung fought with Fabregas again. The two of them fell to the ground while pulling and pulling. They had to praise Park Ji-sung as a clever guy. Before he fell to the ground, he stabbed the football first, and Fletcher got the ball.
The referee on duty, Graham Pole, raised his hand to signal the two of them to get up, which means that no one fouls, don't compete with each other, the game continues.
John Motterson shouted: "Counterattack, counterattack, Manchester United's counterattack opportunity."
……………………
After receiving Park Ji-sung's pass, Fletcher did not pass the ball to Yin Jun or other players as usual. He unexpectedly chose to drive the ball forward by himself.
Fletcher's move caught Arsenal's midfield off guard. Today, if Park Ji-sung occasionally pushed forward, the two Manchester United midfielders, O'Shea and Fletcher, were holding their own half. Fletcher at most pressed a few steps, then passed the ball and retreated. He never dribbled the ball in a straight line, so Fletcher suddenly dribbled the ball and did not even have Arsenal players coming up to intercept it.
Fletcher was driving the ball into the ball.
Ferguson stood on the sidelines and was excited to see this scene. He quickly clapped his hands and muttered in his mouth: rush! rush! rush!
Fletcher is a midfielder who is good at running and blocking. He is very strong and good at interception and stealing. He is physically capable and has a large range of movement, which is a good protection for his defense line.
Fletcher's advantages are obvious, and his shortcomings are also obvious, that is, his organizational ability and offensive ability are not good. He rarely sees him participate in the offense, so naturally he has not scored many goals. Since joining Manchester United's first team in the 2003-2004 season, he has only scored 4 goals.
However, Fletcher, a young man from Manchester United's youth training camp, has high expectations, hoping that he will become Roy Keane's successor. So in Manchester United's usual tactical training classes, Fletcher sometimes makes Fletcher suddenly move forward. The main consideration is that Fletcher rarely presses up. If he suddenly presses up, sometimes he can achieve miraculous effects!
As for when to press it, Ferguson left it to the players to decide based on the situation on the field.
Therefore, this sudden forward insertion was a tactical exercise, but the forward insertion was Fletcher's own judgment and choice.
……………………
"Fletcher dribbled the ball forward by himself, and Arsenal's midfield did not intercept at all... Gilberto, he came up to intercept and rushed over." Reinker shouted with his fists clenched.
Gilberto Silva came up to intercept, but this time the interception was more symbolic. Fletcher, who was not good at extraordinary people, drove the football forward and accelerated himself, and then passed by.
"Gilberto let Fletcher go, and he turned to guard Yin Jun." John Mortson said.
Gilberto Silva just symbolically blocked it and did not chase Fletcher, but immediately rushed to Yin Jun. The test told him that Fletcher would not continue to dribble the ball, he would choose to pass the ball, and Yin Jun, who was closest to Fletcher, was obviously a dangerous person.
Ferguson clenched his hands and looked at the court with his lips tightly pursed, motionless, his eyes as if they were shining.
……………………
"Van Nistruey retreated, he was ready to respond to Fletcher... Khlo Toure came up, he was guarding against Fletcher's pass, well done, Fletcher!!!" Lyinker shouted loudly.
Fletcher made a move to pass the ball to Van Nistrui, which was the most correct choice in everyone's opinion. Everyone knows that Fletcher's characteristic is that he dares to fight, and that breakthroughs and shooting are really not his strengths.
To be honest, being able to drive the ball through such a long distance and passing Gilberto Silva has already opened its mouth in shock.
Kloe Toure immediately stretched out his foot to block Fletcher's pass, but he didn't expect Fletcher to take the ball forward, suddenly started to speed, squeezed away Kloe Toure and continued to move forward.
Kroo Toure was shocked and turned around and was about to chase him.
At this time, Yin Jun and Rooney were sprinting.
"Pass!" Ferguson clenched his fists and shouted loudly into the field. At this moment, Yin Jun and Van Nisstrui had attracted the attention of Arsenal's entire defense line, and Rooney was empty.
"Replace the position! Replace the defense!" Lehman shouted loudly.
Lehman shouted, and the experienced Campbell had already noticed that Rooney had been missed, so he quickly turned around and rushed towards Rooney.
"Pass!" shouted Leinker, "Available - Campbell fills up - Fletcher - he - shot?!!!!"
Leinker widened his eyes, and the commentator's eyes were filled with a look of surprise. He saw Fletcher lifting his right foot, but not passing the ball, but shooting!
This Manchester United midfielder suddenly kicked off and shot near thirty meters away from the goal!
……………………
Like Leinker, no one expected Fletcher to choose to shoot at that position, and was so decisive.
The football soared into the air and flew suddenly towards the goal, bringing a gust of wind.
Lehman's attention was all focused on Fletcher's possible pass to Rooney on Manchester United's right. He really didn't expect Fletcher to suddenly shoot, so Lehman's position was tilted to the left. At this time, he had no time to adjust his position, so he could only take off in the air, stretched his arms, and wanted to save the football that suddenly shot from a long distance.
"Fletcher!GOOOOOOAAAALLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!"
With this iconic long whistle from John Motson, Arsenal's patron Lehman fell down from the air, and his facial expression was desperate because he did not touch the football.
The football flew over Lehman's right hand and suddenly drilled into the ball net, rolling the snow-white ball net high!
In the 69th minute of the game, Manchester United midfielder Fletcher scored a goal!
2:1, Manchester United surpassed the score again at Highbury Stadium!
