Chapter 62: Moyang, who glows hot in the back waist
In the 62nd minute of the game, Manchester United suddenly increased the intensity of their own half's pressing.
This sudden change caught Liverpool by surprise.
Salah received a direct pass from Mo Yang on the wing and was hesitating how to launch an attack. However, he did not expect that as soon as he crossed the center line and entered the Manchester United half, he was suddenly confronted by Lingard, Damian, Pogba, and Moshi.
The four players from Taliang immediately lost the ball in a cage-style siege.
After Manchester United got the ball, they immediately launched a counterattack. Pogba passed the ball directly to Lukaku who acted as the fulcrum in the middle.
On the right side of Liverpool's penalty area, Lukaku received the ball with his back and resisted Matip behind him.
"Alexander, go back!"
Seeing Arnold rushing towards Lukaku, Mo Yang immediately shouted.
After being reminded like this, Arnold immediately noticed Lingard behind him who was quietly advancing along the sideline, and was immediately startled.
Fortunately, Mo Yang reminded him, otherwise he would have really missed someone, allowing Lingard to break through from the wing. With this guy's foot skills, he would probably mess up the penalty area, and he would lose the ball if he wasn't careful.
.
Seeing that his offensive intention was seen through, Lukaku felt a little depressed, and had no choice but to pass the ball back to Pogba.
"Virgil, look at the Frenchman!"
Seeing Pogba receiving the ball, Mo Yang immediately called out to remind Van Dijk on the other side of the ribs.
Before he could finish his words, Pogba started his kick, directly making a rainbow long pass at an angle of 45 degrees, with a full arc.
In the penalty area, Van Dijk, who was reminded by Mo Yang, directly blocked the position with his tall body, rushed to the ball landing spot ahead of Martial, jumped high, and cleared the ball to Robertson.
On the sidelines, Klopp saw Mo Yang commanding the defense this time, with a smile on his face and continuous applause with both hands.
Klopp feels that his adjustment is so right!
Although Mo Yang's role on the offensive end was temporarily sacrificed, the defense was instantly stabilized.
The fans at the scene also burst into applause. They saw Mo Yang's timely and calm command.
This ability to often see through the opponent's offensive intentions in advance has made some Red Army fans even begin to wonder if Mo Yang has the ability to predict the future.
With the adjustment of Manchester United's offensive tactics, both sides launched waves of offensive attacks.
On Manchester United's side, they gradually stopped sticking to defensive counterattacks and began to move their pressing formation forward to enrich their offensive routines.
As for Liverpool, although Mo Yang's support is missing in the frontcourt, Lallana, who is responsible for connecting the two sides, dispatching and launching attacks, does a very good job although not as amazing as Mo Yang.
In the 75th minute of the game, Liverpool launched an offensive from the left.
Manchester United repeated their same trick. After Mane brought the ball to the right flank of the penalty area, Matic suddenly approached the center from the ribs, blocking Mane's space for cutting inside, while Martial went directly up to the top and connected with Mane.
Internal fighting.
Mane relied on his body to protect the ball and turned around to pass back, but found that Mkhitaryan had blocked his path back to Robertson.
After discovering that several nearby ball exit points were blocked, forcing the ball to pass would only put his teammates in danger, Mane was immediately in a dilemma.
At this moment, the encirclement of Mkhitaryan, Valencia, and Martial shrank.
Mane had no choice but to play a long pass before Manchester United could come together.
"Mane! A long pass from outside the penalty area, looking for Ibrahimovic!"
"This kind of pass is not a big threat!" Zhan Jun in the live broadcast room shook his head.
Zhang Lu answered and said with a smile: "This is what Manchester United wants to achieve."
"Judging from Liverpool's offensive effectiveness during this period, Manchester United was successful. Although Lallana did okay, his offensive intentions were too obvious and could easily be seen through by Manchester United's defensive players!"
"Forehead!……"
As soon as Zhang Lu finished speaking, the situation on the court suddenly changed.
The person who stirred up the situation is Mo Yang!
Mane made a long pass into the Manchester United penalty area, but he failed to control the landing point of the ball. It passed Ibrahimovic and directly found Jones.
Jones met the ball and cleared the ball out of the penalty area.
The top of the ball was very powerful and flew high. It looked like it was a pass, and the person he passed it to was Mo Yang, who was four or five meters away and slightly behind.
Seeing Mo Yang calmly unloading the ball and stopping the ball, the Manchester United players immediately tensed up. Matic, Pogba and others immediately returned to the defensive position.
Pogba and the retreating Lukaku rushed directly to Moyang, but it was already too late.
Before the two of them could run over, Mo Yang, who was still standing, suddenly turned around and faced Salah, raised his right foot and pushed with the arch of his foot, and suddenly a through ball appeared like a sharp scalpel.
The ball jumped straight out on the lawn, as fast as lightning.
Just pass Pogba's left side, and then pass between Damian and Jones who are slightly apart from each other, and the seconds will reach the extreme.
At the same time, Salah just ran into the penalty area from the sideline of the penalty area and saw the ball rolling over.
Before the ball reached Salah, he saw Jones blocking his cross path on the left.
As for Damian behind him, he didn't need to look to know that this guy was running towards him at this moment.
So Salah met the ball without stopping and swept it in front of the other goal post.
When he found the ball passing behind his heel, Jones' eyes widened and he cursed Salah in his heart, but it was of no use.
At the same time, Mane broke out from the defense of Matic and Smalling and directly shot with a shovel.
Everyone thought this was a sure goal, but in a flash, De Gea made another world-class save.
I saw this guy throw himself over, and blocked Mane's shovel shot at close range with his chest, and then hit the goalpost with his back.
The ball saved by De Gea fell to Valencia's feet.
Valencia saw Arnold and Mane teaming up to press forward, and quickly kicked the ball forward to clear the ball.
The ball was kicked back to the center circle, passed by Van Dijk and moved to the right again, and Matip handed it to Mo Yang again.
When Mo Yang took the ball, he suddenly saw De Gea lying on the ground in the penalty area and the Manchester United players were waving to him to interrupt the game.
Mo Yang did not hesitate and immediately kicked the ball out of the sideline. Although he saw countless gaps, he did not choose to pass it.
It's not that he's being pretentious, it's that he wants an upright victory.
Seeing Mo Yang kicking the ball out of the sideline to interrupt the game, the fans at the scene spontaneously gave Mo Yang warm applause for showing excellent competitive sportsmanship.
Although this is an excellent offensive opportunity, they do not want Mo Yang to be a person who will do whatever it takes to win.
The Manchester United fans at the scene were also applauding Mo Yang. This is their gratitude to Mo Yang!
On the sidelines, Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief.
That through ball just now really scared him!
Damian and Jones made a momentary mistake in their positioning, but this kid caught them and passed the ball accurately.
This kid's ability and vision to capture opportunities are so outstanding that it makes him feel incredible.
"Did you see that?"
"Even if Mo Yang plays as a defensive midfielder, the attack launched from his feet can directly threaten Manchester United's goal!" Zhan Jun exclaimed, "This kind of through ball is the embodiment of art!"
"I have to say that Klopp knows Mo Yang very well. It seems that when he took Mo Yang away from Leeds United, he also got Mo Yang's instructions from his old friend Bielsa!" Zhan Jun said with a smile.
