From the man behind the football king to the football king

Chapter 450 There are eyes in the back of the head

Although the second leg of the Europa League semi-finals took place on Thursday night, the entire Celta Vigo team arrived at Manchester United on Tuesday.

During an interview at the airport, Celta Vigo's Swedish star Guidetti said Celta Vigo would have the last laugh.

"We now have ninety minutes to score away goals, so their away goal is no big deal." The Swede curled his lips and said.

This player who came from Manchester City's youth training camp, although he has the title of Swedish Rooney, is naturally hostile to Manchester United.

Perhaps wanting to remind people of his Manchester City youth training pedigree, the Swedish star also shouted into the reporter's camera: "The sky in Manchester is blue!"

However, the Swede forgot that this season, Manchester City not only exited the League Cup, FA Cup and Champions League early, but also performed poorly in the league. Currently, Guardiola is still leading the team to prepare for next season. Fighting to qualify for the Champions League.

On the contrary, Manchester United has not only won the League Cup, but also reached the final of the FA Cup. In the league, they are 4 points ahead of Chelsea with one game less, and are within easy reach of the league championship. In the Europa League, In the Cup, Manchester United is also very likely to defeat Celta Vigo, where he plays, and reach the final.

Their full-back Jonny Castro received a yellow card in the opening twenty-eight minutes.

Seeing Bruno shake off the defender, the other Manchester United players naturally knew what they should do.

At the end of the first half, forward Guidetti also received a yellow card for making too many moves during the fight.

At the height of their offensive, Manchester United could not even make it past halftime, and Gary Lineker was exclaiming whose home court it was.

If they can defeat Manchester United, advance to the Europa League final, and finally defeat Ajax in the final to win the Europa League championship, Celta can even participate in the Champions League next season!

He is explaining the tactical characteristics of Manchester United to his players endlessly. They must contain their wings, contain their center, pay attention to their core Bruno, and pay attention to their Rashford and Rooney...

Bellizzo had obviously washed away his experience from the failure in the first game, and he surrounded Bruno from all sides.

When the game started, Celta Vigo launched a fierce attack on Manchester United's goal.

Mourinho's expression was very serious when he said these words, making people think that he would greatly emphasize the importance of defense next.

This scene really made the fans of Celta Vigo excited. If this were at their home court, the cheers would have been heard in the sky. But unfortunately this is Manchester United's home court, so there are only boos all over the stadium.

After receiving the ball, he didn't even raise his head to observe, and then raised his foot to pass the ball again. The football flew directly to the feet of Lingard on the other side.

His pressing force forced Bruno to pass back or cross the ball more, instead of passing the ball forward, so Manchester United was unable to play a threatening offense.

This allows Celta Vigo's defense to gain temporary safety, so that Celta Vigo can concentrate on attacking and strive to score before Manchester United scores and reverse the situation.

But at this moment, he saw Bruno swinging his foot towards the football and knocking the football sideways to Kanter. At the same time, he quickly turned around, as if there were eyes in the back of his head, bypassing Pablo Fernandez!

When he turned around, Pablo Fernandez was still in a daze.

But there was nothing they could do. With Bruno, Manchester United is a team that is very good at controlling the football and rhythm. If they want to break Manchester United's rhythm, the most effective way is to foul.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. It was Celta Vigo who still attacked Manchester United. Manchester United was compressed into its own half and rarely could attack into Celta Vigo's half.

That's perfect!

As for why they defeated Ajax in the Europa League final, it was because Ajax defeated Lyon 4:1 at home in the first round. Bellizzo did not think Lyon could still win at home in the second round. Comeback.

Obviously, Bruno is his prey!

The key was that Bruno, who had his back turned to him, could not see him at all, and could not possibly know that a murderous cheetah had pounced on him behind him.

He believes that as long as Celta Vigo can score first, it will change the trend of the entire game and pave the way for the final reversal and victory.

But there are always exceptions to everything. For example, this time, when Maguire was about to kick the football out, he caught a glimpse of Bruno making a gesture to him asking for the ball.

Celta Vigo is currently only tenth in La Liga, and there is zero possibility of qualifying for next season's European competition through the league ranking. The Copa del Rey was also eliminated by Alaves in the semi-finals, so if they want to appear in the European competition next season, the Europa League is their only hope.

………………

But until the end of the first half, he did not see the goal appear. Although Manchester United seemed to have a difficult time coping, they did not concede a goal. Their defensive tenacity was greater than Berizzo imagined.

Of course, he also knew that it was impossible to make Bruno completely useless, so he chose to limit Bruno's role in a certain part, such as offense...

………………

Maguire saw this scene and shouted excitedly in his heart: Well done, Bruno!

"Bruno! Nice turn! He avoided Pablo Fernandez's press!"

………………

Facing Celta Vigo's pressing attack, Manchester United struggled to cope, but at least they did not concede a goal.

………………

Maguire deliberately wanted to remind Bruno that as soon as he opened his mouth, the football was already in front of Bruno, and he was definitely too late.

But then he changed the subject and said: "So in this game we score earlier than them. As long as we can score more goals than them, no matter how many goals they score in the end, they will be eliminated!"

………………

In the first half, Celta Vigo had three players booked, including those in the front, middle and back. This can be reflected in the data, but what is not reflected in the data is that the defensive actions of Celta Vigo players are very large.

In the 32nd minute, defensive midfielder Ladoya also received a late yellow card for a foul on Bruno. In addition to the yellow card he received on Bruno in the previous round, even if Celta Vigo can reach the final, He will also miss the final.

Kanter did not stop the ball, but passed the football passed by Bruno diagonally to the front. The target was Bruno who had turned around and rushed forward!

He looked at the situation around Bruno. Because Bruno had withdrawn to the wing, there were no Celta Vigo players around him for the time being. This was an opportunity to get the ball, so he passed the football.

Bruno frequently used passes to control the situation, but he also became the focus of defense for Celta Vigo players. He received the yellow cards for Ladoya and Guidetti.

Berizzo stood on the sidelines with his hands in his pockets, staring at the court very intently, closely watching the development of the game.

Fouls can frequently interrupt Manchester United's rhythm of possession, and of course it will also bring them a very high risk of being kicked out. After all, this is Manchester United's home court, and the referee will more or less favor the home team.

Amidst the boos, Celta Vigo charged desperately towards the Manchester United goal.

Manchester United's offensive system suddenly came into operation after being silent for half the game. It was not jerky at all and was smooth and smooth.

Before the game against Celta Vigo, Mourinho gave his players the task of arranging this game in the locker room: "Don't think that if we beat them away from home, we will definitely advance to the final. In fact, Even the promotion probability is not necessarily higher than that of our opponents. After all, we only beat them by one goal. Don't think what Guidetti said is annoying. That's the truth. Now they have a full ninety minutes to fight for the away game. Goal, if we let them score a goal then all our away advantage will be in vain.”

Not every attack of theirs can threaten the goal guarded by Romero, and some attacks will be intercepted midway.

This old guy is like a panther lying in ambush in the grass. He has been carefully hiding his body, and then waits for the opportunity to jump up and pounce on his prey!

So he quickly set up a defensive posture, preparing to face Celta Vigo's counterattack.

At the same time, in the visiting team's locker room at Old Trafford, Berizzo still had his tactical board densely packed, which looked a bit messy.

Of course, Celta Vigo also paid a price for playing like this.

At this time, in order to advance, Celta Vigo can’t care so much.

Rashford, Fellaini, Gundogan and Rooney all moved quickly. Some ran forward, while others moved closer to Bruno, ready to meet him.

But just when he passed the football, he saw Celta Vigo midfielder Pablo Hernandez rushing towards Bruno!

But when I observed it, he was still far away!

The core component of this system is naturally Bruno with the ball.

He didn't expect that such a sudden attack would be in vain!

………………

At this time, Manchester United players will choose to kick the football forward with their big feet, keeping Manchester United's goal away from danger for the time being.

Bruno just used a one-two against the wall to bypass Pablo Fernandez.

When he just finished passing the ball, Ladoya came in front of him.

Celta Vigo's players are indeed very quick in defense. If Bruno stops the ball to observe, or takes one more step, he will be stopped by Ladoya.

But Bruno seemed to have eyes on the back of his head and saw his opponent's moves in advance, perfectly avoiding this risk!
