309 The Hornet Attacks!
Before the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals arrives, Manchester United will usher in the 34th round of the league match against Aston Villa at home.
Aston Villa, ranked 17th in the league, was only three points higher than the relegation zone.
When visiting Old Trafford, he naturally defended intensively, pressed fiercely, and made three tricks to fight back.
Manchester United rotated the lineup, with Hernandez and Villbeck forming two strikers.
Ashley Young plays two full-backs with Giggs, while Clevie and Phil Jones partner in the midfield.
Butner, Evans, Smalling and Raphael formed the back line.
De Gea continued to start.
Manchester United's lineup is relatively simple, just fly together and just pass it.
After all, it is not realistic to make them more complicated.
I thought Manchester United would play a bit ugly without the main players, but Manchester United's substitutes performed unexpectedly well.
Perhaps it is the end of the season, and they are full of energy and are all trying to achieve their best form and performance.
Manchester United took the initiative from the beginning, and the two wings flew together and played happily. After all, they are old-fashioned. When will Manchester United not be able to play on the wings mean that they are indeed starting to go downhill.
The continuous crosses on the wing tried to create opportunities without an excellent shooting opportunity. The fans felt that they might have to change the main player to come up in the second half.
As a result, in the 32nd minute of the game, Cleville shot into Aston Villa's goal with a corner kick.
Manchester United leads Aston Villa 1-0 at home.
When Aston Villa had to attack and tried to equalize the score, Manchester United's fast break was no longer in a position to lose points.
Before the end of the first half, Giggs made a cross from the wing and assisted Villebeck to score!
Manchester United leads Aston Villa 2:0.
Ferguson breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the main player could win the game without the main player appearing.
This will allow Manchester United to welcome the Champions League semi-finals in the best form!
When the game came to the second half, Aston Villa continued to attack wildly and frequently created dangers in front of Manchester United's goal. De Gea's appearance rate continued to increase, and his high contact resistance kept keeping Manchester United's goal unabashed!
Aston Villa, who averaged only one goal per game this season, does not have a strong ability to seize opportunities in front of the goal, otherwise Manchester United would have conceded the goal long ago.
As the 80th minute of the game approached, Nani, who came on the bench, assisted Hernandez on the wing to score a goal and killed the game.
Although Hernandez scored two goals, he didn't look very happy.
Little Pea, who is less than 25 years old, naturally hopes to get an absolute main position. If you can't get it here at Manchester United, it basically means that he must make a decision, whether to stay in Dream Theater as a spare tire or switch to other teams to get enough opportunities to play.
Manchester United beat Aston Villa 3-0 at home.
At the end of the game, Tang Hong stood up and applauded with his teammates. Not to mention anything else, Manchester United's bench strength is nothing compared to the giants, and it is basically in the countdown.
But in terms of foundation, Manchester United's substitutes are sometimes very reliable. The key is that the team always maintains consistency in terms of style and style. Ferguson's ability to combine the team is undoubtedly.
This has invisibly improved Manchester United's overall combat effectiveness!
In the same round of the league, Manchester City lost to Tottenham 1:3 at White Hart Lane, causing the gap to widen for Manchester United to 13 points!
Manchester United won the Premier League championship four rounds ahead of schedule!
Manchester United didn't have time to celebrate the championship, and they didn't even focus on winning the championship and wanted to face Dortmund's challenge at home.
This is the most important battlefield when the season reaches its final stage!
Fleet Street uses countless praises to Manchester United, who won the championship four rounds in advance, and then looks forward to Manchester United reaching the Champions League final again in the Champions League!
After all, Manchester United is the only Premier League seed in the Champions League.
On the evening of April 24, Dortmund visited Old Trafford.
Before the game, Shinji Kagawa shook hands and hugged his former Dortmund teammates. A year later, Shinji Kagawa faced his old club Haima on the Champions League stage and was unexpected.
Tang Hong stood in the queue and looked at the Dortmund generals, the handsome Reus, the young Gotze, and Lewandowski, who made great progress in the past two years...
After Dortmund got out of the trough, he was really reborn under Klopp's management.
When the starters of the two teams walked into the stadium, the lively stands burst into cheering in shock. Dortmund fans who came from afar did not have the awareness of being a guest, showing extremely fanatical momentum.
This is Dortmund's first return to the Champions League semi-finals since he was on the verge of bankruptcy and fell to the bottom!
The team has completed its dominance in the Bundesliga in the past two years and cannot be saved this season, but it is expected to win something in the Champions League.
Uncle Slag Klopp stood with his hands behind his back on the sidelines with an extremely serious expression. When he came to Old Trafford, he felt the atmosphere here. He knew that it was not easy to get through Manchester United's level, because Manchester United is not the kind of team that can easily defeat!
The kings of traffic in the football circle are Mourinho and Guardiola. People will talk about their tactics, playing styles, styles, and on-the-spot dispatches, but few people mention these when talking about Ferguson. It seems that Ferguson is outdated and is not the pioneer of football in this era, but Ferguson, who is old in the world, can grasp the essence of many of the essence of a team becoming stronger.
Spirit, fighting spirit, rhythm of the game, oppressing opponents in momentum, etc.
And these happen to be what many upstarts in football lack.
Just looking at Paris Saint-Germain's performance when it was eliminated by Manchester United is clearly visible.
However, Klopp does not think his Dortmund has no chance in front of Manchester United.
Due to the gap in fame and influence, Manchester United is even more optimistic about entering the finals by the outside world, and Dortmund is relatively disgraced.
Klopp won't accept his fate!
And he is ready to make some sensation in Old Trafford!
Ferguson still chose to sit in the coach's seat to watch the game. For Klopp, Ferguson must be an old senior, and such a peaceful attitude must also put psychological pressure on the opponent!
Ferguson is good at using psychological warfare in his posture.
"Good evening for everyone, everyone, welcome to watch the first leg of the 2012-2013 Champions League semi-finals!
Red Devils Manchester United sits at home against Old Trafford against Bundesliga team Dortmund!
In the past weekend, the Red Devils Manchester United won the Premier League championship four rounds ahead of schedule. Including that they have won the British League Cup championship this season, at least now Manchester United is already a double champion, and they have reached the FA Cup final. The Champions League is now in the semi-finals. Manchester United has a great hope of completing a great season that has never appeared in even Manchester United's history!
After two consecutive Bundesliga titles, Dortmund was regained lost ground by Bayern Munich this season. Although there is still hope for defending the title, it is very slim. They are more hopeful now, instead they are striving to enter the Champions League final this season, but it will never be easy to eliminate opponents like Manchester United.
Today, both coaches line up their strongest lineup.
Manchester United starts 433.
Goalkeeper: De Gea.
Defenders: Valencia, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra.
Midfielder: Phil Jones, Shinji Kagawa, Carrick.
Forwards: Van Persie, Rooney, Tang Hong.
Dortmund also started 433.
Goalkeeper: Weidenfeller.
Defenders: Piszczek, Hummels, Subotic, Schmelzer.
Midfielder: Sven Bend, Gotze, Gundogan.
Forwards: Kuba, Lewandowski, Reus.
Although these two teams do not have a Golden Ball, they have two European Golden Boys. Dortmund's Gotze was the winner of the European Golden Boy Award two years ago, while Manchester United's Tang Hong was the winner of the European Golden Boy Award last year!
I don’t know which two new generation geniuses can shine better in this game!
Okay, the game will begin soon, let us look forward to how exciting the first leg of this Champions League semi-final will be!”
With the referee's whistle, the battle curtain officially opened!
Manchester United will naturally play more proactively, but Dortmund shows no sign of retreating and conservatism.
In the second minute of the game, Rooney passed the ball in the middle of the frontcourt and found Tang Hong on the wing. Under the attack of Pisczek and Sven Bend, Tang Hong knocked the ball back to Shinji Kagawa from the back, and immediately stepped forward after the ball was released.
Shinji Kagawa sent a slanted transmission over the top.
Tang Hong accidentally discovered that Pischek turned around and chased afterwards, and was actually better than he could touch the ball first!
But Piszczek made a scoop first and broke the ball out of the sideline, and he could not control the ball absolutely safely.
Tang Hong quickly drove the ball to Rooney who came to meet him, and the latter knocked the ball back to Shinji Kagawa. The Japanese midfielder passed the ball to the ground with a diagonal pass to the front of the penalty area and sent the ball to the right side of the penalty area.
Van Persie cut in the middle and moved the ball in a direction and shook the angle in front of Subotic, then pulled his feet and shot angrily!
Van Persie, who was trying to hit a close corner, was a little unwilling to watch the football deviate from the goal and fly out of the baseline by half a meter.
The Red Devils fans gave him applause.
Dortmund launched a fast attack. Reus controlled the ball from the left side of the frontcourt and pushed forward with a dribbled forward. When he encountered Phil Jones, who was assisting in the defense of the wing, he passed the ball across the middle. When Goze led the ball, he dribbled the ball diagonally and drove Carrick to the front of him. Then he sent a diagonal pass from the counter-tangent line, and the football rolled to the right in front of the penalty area.
After Kubaneche arrived, he sent out a straight pass to the right side of the penalty area.
Lewandowski came behind Vidic in a diagonal run. When Ferdinand followed the defense, he stopped the ball and spiked the ball towards the middle but then turned sharply and then moved the ball towards the bottom line. The ball after a pause did shake Ferdinand. Lewandowski forced his kick to shoot at the very small angle!
The football flew straight to the near corner of the goal, and goalkeeper De Gea subconsciously raised his hand to block the ball from the baseline!
Just looking at the offensives of the two teams after the opening, Dortmund seems to be more threatening, after all, they got a shot in the penalty area.
It seems that Manchester United is not bad either, so fans don't have to worry too much.
But the subsequent trend of the game surprised all Red Devils fans and even spectators from all over the world!
When Dortmund took a corner kick and was cleared by Manchester United, Manchester United, who had originally planned to counterattack, was frantically surrounded by Dortmund in the backcourt!
From the front line to the midfield, Dortmund not only participated in the counter-attack defense, but also did a good job in controlling the joint defense and pressing area.
Manchester United was unable to organize a counterattack from the backcourt for a moment!
Chapter completed!
