Chapter 670 Waiting for an Opportunity
After Chelsea's substitutions, Ferguson also quickly made substitution adjustments, Giggs replaced O'Shea.

In this way, Manchester United also completed the transformation: Ronaldo returned to the midfield and went to the right, playing right midfielder; Giggs, who came off the bench, became his best left midfielder; Yin Jun continued to play as a midfielder, Fletcher It is to kick the lower back.

The Welsh veteran also brought Ferguson's latest instructions, which is to press down on the right and attack with all his strength on the left!

Manchester United changed into a traditional 442 formation!

It seems that Manchester United has lost a striker, but the threat to Chelsea has almost doubled.

Chelsea's defensive line at the moment is not complete, Terry is the only central defender left. Although Ferreira is versatile in the backcourt, he is really good at right back, and other positions can only be temporary guest appearances.

However, at this moment he has to face the impact of his national team teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, and he has to help Terry share the huge pressure from Ruud van Nistelrooy and Rooney. It is really Alexander.

Under such circumstances, Mourinho judged that Manchester United would attack the right.But how did he know that Ferguson was going all over the place, and his real target was the left side, that is, the right side of Chelsea guarded by Essien?
………………

Nicknamed "Ghana Buffalo", Essien played as a defender early in his career, but later became famous in the midfielder position.Essien has excellent physical fitness, quick movements and strong mobility.In terms of defense, Essien's predictions are accurate, his positioning is reasonable, his style of play is fierce, and he is very fierce in tackles and tackles; in terms of offense, Essien is good at grabbing points and has a strong long-range shot. The technique is also quite delicate, the passing is accurate, the dribbling is solid but not flashy, and he is an all-around player.

Since joining Chelsea last summer, the Ghanaian, who has excellent running ability and a large defensive coverage area, quickly occupied a main position under Mourinho.

In fact, Essien played quite well at Chelsea this season, and was hailed by Mourinho as Mr. Zero Turnover.

Yin Jun is no stranger to this Chelsea midfielder.Before he joined Chelsea, the two had played against each other in the Champions League, and they also formed a bond.

In the 2004th round of the 2005-5 UEFA Champions League group stage, Essien had a very bad foul on Yin Jun, but the Ghanaian then reprimanded Yin Jun for pretending to be injured.This angered Yin Jun, who showed his power in the ensuing game, 2 shots and 2 passes, helping Manchester United beat Lyon 5:1, and also caused Essien to be sent off after two yellows and one red, and vowed to see Essien once Hit him once.

In this game, Essien's defensive task is not on Yin Jun, and there are not many opportunities for the two to face each other.Now that Ferguson is asking Manchester United to attack Essien, Yin Jun will naturally not refuse.

Immediately, Yin Jun began to expand his range of activities, actively retreated, pulled out Essien, and waited for an opportunity.

………………

Time is passing by quickly.

Although there is one less player than the opponent, Chelsea still showed a strong tactical quality and integrity.Manchester United's offense has been greatly tested and has never been able to create an effective offensive.

When Drogba was fighting for the top, he elbowed Vidic, but since he already had a yellow card and Chelsea had already sent off one man, the referee Boll was merciful and gave the Ivorian striker a stern warning. And no more killers.

But soon, Boll also showed mercy to Manchester United. It was a long ball counterattack from Chelsea. Robben dribbled the ball past Evra and Vidic, and dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Falling down in the penalty area under pressure, the referee did not award a penalty kick. Mourinho protested angrily on the sidelines.

The score has not changed, but the game is still very intense.

………………

As the core of Manchester United's offense, Yin Jun is still actively organizing the offense, interspersed and running very hard, and patiently looking for opportunities.

When the game progressed to No.609 minutes, Yin Jun's long-awaited opportunity finally appeared.

At that time, Manchester United launched an offensive on the right to suppress Chelsea.

Because Mourinho judged that Manchester United might launch a strong attack on the right, he asked the team to strengthen their defense on the right.Facing the impact of Ronaldo, Chelsea deployed defenses in the front 30 meters area of ​​​​the penalty area and waited for it.

Ronaldo failed to attack on the right and was forced to pass back to Gary Neville.

After Manchester United's right back stepped in, he glanced at the penalty area. There were people everywhere, and he couldn't score at all.

At this time, Yin Jun in the middle suddenly retreated from the front and raised his hand to ask for the ball.

Gary Neville diverted the ball with one kick and sent it to Yin Jun's feet.

Yin Jun's chest stopped, and he took advantage of the trend to make a trip to the middle.

Essien rushed up quickly and entangled Yin Jun tightly, while Makelele in the middle also quickly approached.

One-on-one, none of Chelsea's defensive players can defend Yin Jun, so Mourinho asked Chelsea players to pay attention to assisting defense.

The same situation has happened many times in previous games, but this time it is a little different.

Since the ball was quickly transferred from the right to the left, Chelsea's entire defense was also rapidly shifting. Makelele was not able to double-team Essien in the first place as before. He had to be a little slower.

After all, Makelele is already a 33-year-old veteran. After playing 70 minutes of high-intensity games, his physical fitness has been almost exhausted, and he can't keep up with the rhythm of the game.

………………

Makelele was a little slower, and there was a gap between him and Essien.

Yin Jun has been waiting for an opportunity. When he realizes that there is a gap between Essien and Makelele, how can he miss such an opportunity, and he chooses to make a quick strike with the ball without hesitation.

Yin Jun's starting speed was very fast, and he was slanting towards the penalty area again, while Essien was positioned to the left, and Makelele was one step away.Although the two Chelsea defenders reacted at the same time, Yin Jun still let Yin Jun grab the only gap, and took the ball out of the double-team of the two defenders at the fastest speed. .

"Neville moved to the left and handed it over to Yin Jun!"

"Yin Jun dribbled the ball...forcibly broke through!"

"Beautiful! Yin Jun is very fast. He dribbled the ball between the two defenders of Chelsea and rushed to the front of the penalty area!"

……

Terry gave up Ruud van Nistelrooy at the first time and made a decisive grab, trying to force Yin Jun to prevent him from rushing into the penalty area.

The captain of Chelsea just rushed to the vicinity of Yin Jun, but felt Yin Jun suddenly stop, and then felt the figure flickering in front of him, it seemed that Yin Jun was going to continue to cut to the middle, Terry immediately made a block, but Yin Jun did not It was a buckle with his right foot, and Terry jumped into the air.

Lineker, who was commentating the game, his eyes lit up and exclaimed: "Wow! The pendulum is amazing! The pendulum is amazing!! Yin Jun used a beautiful pendulum to surpass people and passed Terry!"
