Football King Bale

Trailing 0:2 at halftime and still playing on the road, this undoubtedly pushed Manchester United into a desperate situation, especially since this stadium is still the Upton Park stadium where Manchester United has had a poor record over the years. This has made many football professionals believe that Manchester United will not be able to win this season. The undefeated streak ends today.

However, there are also many Manchester United fans who believe that as long as Manchester United improves in the second half, it can still be saved. After all, this season, Manchester United has not achieved a comeback after falling behind by two goals at halftime.

Not to mention anything else, Manchester United's opponent here has a precedent this season of leading Manchester United by two goals at halftime only to be reversed by Manchester United. In this season's League Cup quarter-finals, Manchester United visited Upton Park Stadium. They sleepwalked as a team in the first half and conceded two goals in a row. However, in the second half, under the leadership of Bell, Manchester United broke out and contributed two passes and two goals. shot, and finally reversed the Hammers with a score of 5:4.

Speaking of which, there are really many similarities between these two games. It is difficult to say that Manchester United will not stage a comeback again.

From the beginning of the second half, people discovered that Ferguson did have a strong desire to reverse and win the game, because he replaced Evra at halftime, who had been sleepwalking in the first half, and replaced him with Evra. The one who played him was not a defender, but Hernandez.

After completing this substitution, Manchester United returned to the traditional 442 formation from the 4231 formation in the first half. Valencia, who originally played as a midfielder in the team, was moved to the left back position by Ferguson, with Fabio and Smalling and Vidic formed the back line. The four midfielders are Bell, Gibson, Carrick and Giggs, with Rooney and Hernandez partnering up front.

………………

Manchester United, whose midfielder was blasted by Ferguson's hairdryer for fifteen minutes in the visiting team's locker room, played very aggressively at the beginning of the second half and created opportunities in the first wave of attacks. After Rooney and Hernandez kicked off the ball, they kicked the ball to Carrick, who immediately passed the ball to Bell who came over to receive the ball.

At this time, Giggs, Rooney and Hernandez were actively pushing forward while opening up space for Bale.

Bell did not attack on the right wing with the ball, but diagonally inserted into the middle. After passing two West Ham United players in succession and attracting the attention of the defense on the field, he suddenly passed a long pass. , passed through almost half of the field, and hit the back of West Ham United's left defense.

The fast forward Giggs received a pass from Bale behind the defense and then lobbed the ball into the West Ham penalty area. Little Pea Hernandez grabbed the spot near the penalty spot and then exploded with a kick. Unfortunately, under the pressure of the defensive players, Little Pea failed to suppress the ball, and the ball flew over the crossbar and into the stands.

At this time, only 38 seconds had passed since the start of the second half!

Manchester United's attack shocked West Ham United, and they couldn't help but think of the tragedy that happened in the League Cup.

Although they suffered a 0:4 defeat at Old Trafford in the first leg of the league match between the two sides, in the eyes of West Ham United, it was even more disappointing for Manchester United to reverse a two-goal lead at halftime at Upton Park. tragic.

West Ham United players realize that if they want to compete with the powerful Red Devils in attack, they will never be their opponents. Manchester United, which scored 97 goals in the first 30 rounds, has the most terrifying offensive line in Europe and even the world. However, they only scored 36 goals in the first 30 rounds, and their offensive power is only one-third of Manchester United's. One is slightly stronger.

If you don't play conservatively,

Then I'm afraid the story from four months ago will happen again at Upton Park.

The advantage of two goals in the first half gave them enough conservative capital.

Therefore, under the command of head coach Grant, the West Ham United team turned to defense, hoping to withstand Manchester United's onslaught at the beginning of the second half.

………………

When West Ham United focused on defense, their defensive ability was still good. At least in the first 15 minutes of the second half, Manchester United's super offensive line, led by Bell and Rooney, failed to break through their defense.

During this period, they launched two quick counterattacks that even posed a certain threat to Manchester United's goal. Unfortunately, Scott Parker's long shot missed, while Demba Ba's shot was missed by Ku. Zzak blocks.

Although West Ham United's two counterattacks posed a threat to Manchester United, because the score was behind, Manchester United had no intention of weakening the attack and continued to besiege West Ham United's goal.

When the game passed sixty minutes, Ferguson found that Manchester United still failed to knock on West Ham United's goal, so he asked Berbatov on the bench to warm up and prepare to come on as a substitute.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Manchester United made their second substitution adjustment, replacing young midfielder Gibson with Berbatov. Manchester United changed the formation 433.

In fact, Manchester United's real formation at this time is 235, because the two full-backs, Bell and Giggs, have become de facto wingers, while the two full-backs, Valencia and Fabio, are the real full-backs. Midfielder.

At this time, Manchester United's strongest attacking group was almost concentrated on the field. The three forwards Berbatov, Rooney and Hernandez are all present, plus the devilish wings of Bale and Giggs. Looking at the entire Europe now, there is probably no team that can block this offensive line. .

Therefore, when the game reached the 66th minute, West Ham United's goal was still declared lost.

However, the way Manchester United scored was not a sports goal, but a free kick.

………………

At that time, Carrick passed the ball in the backcourt, and Bell, who returned to the center circle, received the ball and attacked West Ham United's defense. At the same time, Rooney, Berbatov and Hernandez in the penalty area were also actively Movement, pulling on West Ham United's defense. This resulted in only two West Ham United players coming to defend Bell.

Bell, who was bursting out at full strength, was not something that two West Ham United players could defend. He first stunned West Ham United's left winger Gary O'Neill with his continuous changes of direction, then broke through him, and then passed him with a pendulum. Missing Noble, who scored twice from penalty kicks to help West Ham lead Manchester United by two goals.

After passing Noble, Bell was approaching West Ham United's penalty area. At this time, the West Ham United penalty area had been messed up by four other players on Manchester United's offensive line.

As the captain of West Ham United, Noble is well aware of the danger of Bell breaking into the penalty area. Although he is also well aware of the threat of Bell's free kick, it is undoubtedly more cost-effective to give the opponent a free kick than having Bell break into the penalty area.

So Noble reached behind him and pulled Bell down without hesitation.

Noble's foul was not far in front of Lee Mason. He saw it clearly, so he did not hesitate to award Manchester United a penalty located on the right side of the frontcourt, about 25 meters away from the West Ham United goal. A free kick was taken and Noble was also shown a yellow card.

Free kicks at this position are more suitable for left-footed players, not to mention that Bell is also Manchester United's first set kick taker, so Bell stood in front of the ball without hesitation.

West Ham United are very afraid of Bell's free kicks, especially on the previous international match day. Bell played a beautiful kick on the ground in the European Cup qualifiers between Wales and England, breaking through England's gate. So they lined up a wall of five people in the penalty area, and this wall had an absolute height. Demba Ba was 1.91 meters tall, Carlton Cole was 1.92 meters tall, and Carlton Cole was 1.88 meters tall. Da Costa, the 1.86 meter tall Upson and the 1.83 meter tall Hitzelsberg look like a tall city wall from a distance, standing in front of Bell.

However, Bell's feet have been so good recently that even if West Ham United paid enough attention to it, there was still nothing they could do when faced with a perfect curve ball that Bell used his best left foot to throw.

Of course, this also has something to do with their goalkeeper Green's misjudgment. Green believed that the five-man wall he directed was enough to block the near post area and even the middle area of ​​the goal, so what he focused on preventing was Bell hitting the upper corner of the far post.

When Bell's free kick bypassed the West Ham United wall, it seemed to go straight to the upper corner of the far post, so Green flew in that direction without hesitation.

However, when his body soared into the air, his heart felt cold, because he discovered that as the ball bypassed the wall, the flight of defense suddenly took a big turn, and floated towards the near side like a leaf. One side of the doorpost.

Fallen ball!

At that moment, a name emerged in Green's mind.

Then, under Green's horrified gaze and amid the exclamations of 30,000 home team fans at Upton Park, the ball flew into the near corner of the goal!

………………

Bell helped Manchester United regain a point with a perfect goal. The score on the field became 2:1, with the home team West Ham United in front.

At this time, there is still about half an hour until the end of the game, plus injury time.

With Manchester United's strong attacking power, it was really not that difficult to equalize the score or even reverse the game in almost half an hour.

Only then did Grant realize that facing Manchester United, which has super offensive firepower and abundant scoring methods, it would be difficult to defend against West Ham United's weak defensive ability, even if his team already had a two-goal advantage. .

Currently, West Ham United has conceded 50 goals after playing 30 rounds in the league. This number ranks at the bottom in the entire Premier League.

However, when he realized this and planned to make changes to his tactics, it was already too late. Manchester United, who had regained a point, was full of morale and completely suppressed West Ham United.
