Football: Banned for life, forced to travel to Europe

Chapter 551 Weak Manchester United

After Wishing was pulled out of the penalty area, although his direct threat was less, Chelsea had offensive depth.

Wish has strengthened the cooperation with Oscar, Fabregas, Salah and Di Maria, and the offense has become more three-dimensional.

The two wingers began to frequently penetrate from the ribs, Wishing and Oscar also strengthened their long-range shots, and suddenly changed their attacking methods, causing great trouble for Manchester United's defense.

Manchester United's defense was under tremendous pressure. Under the continuous attack, Manchester United's players began to feel overwhelmed and made more mistakes.

No. 308 minutes, Smalling managed to push out Di Maria's cross before making a wish, and when he landed, he couldn't help but staggered a little.

Fighting against wishing is not only physically stressful, but also psychologically stressful.

Smalling studied the wishing video before the game. He found that the Chinese striker is not a player who only relies on his body. Wishing often has some flirty ideas in his mind, which makes the defenders hard to defend. Smalling's spirit has been tense and he is about to collapse. ...

Just when Smalling wanted to take a breath, the ball he cleared did not fly far, Oscar suddenly stepped in, volleyed from the front of the penalty area, and the football went straight to Smalling.

"careful!"

Schneiderlin immediately opened his mouth to remind, but it was okay if he didn't remind. Smalling just raised his head when he heard his call, and the football was already in front of him.

Smalling subconsciously fought with both hands, the football hit his arm and popped out of the penalty area, Schneiderlin kicked the ball out of the sideline...

Wishing, Oscar, and Di Maria immediately raised their hands and shouted, "Handball!"

Anthony Taylor shook his head, motioning for the game to continue.

Of course the Chelsea players quit. They imitated Barcelona and surrounded Anthony Taylor in the middle. What did the Manchester United players do?Immediately also surrounded up.

Huge boos erupted throughout Old Trafford in an attempt to put pressure on referee Anthony Taylor.

Anthony Taylor blew his whistle continuously, dispersed the players from both sides besieging him, and called the captains of both sides, Wishing and Rooney.

This is also the tradition of the Premier League. The referee is blind, but when they encounter disputes and penalties, they will call the captains of both sides to briefly explain their law enforcement standards and reasons.

It was the same this time. Before making a wish, Anthony Taylor asked, "Isn't this a handball? Did you see it? It's definitely a handball!"

Rooney also retorted, "This is unintentional handball, do you want the football to hit Smalling's chest?"

Anthony Taylor's statement is similar to that of Rooney. He believes that this is Smalling's way of actively protecting himself, and it cannot be regarded as handball.

Mourinho was not too excited this time. He just chatted with the fourth official. He knew that with his relationship with the FA, it was impossible to give a penalty for this kind of ball.

In fact, the FA really didn't target Chelsea. They don't like Mourinho, but they like to make wishes.

A wish brought them a three-year broadcast fee of 7.21 million U.S. dollars. As long as the wish is not to leave the Premier League, the price will increase after three years.

There is nothing to say about making a wish, he can't say that players can only block the ball with their chests...

Manchester United escaped, and the first half was about to run out. Chelsea slowed down their attacking rhythm. They could not maintain high-intensity pressing and attacking all the time, and their physical strength could not support them.

The Chelsea players not only slowed down their tempo, but also relaxed their spirits. This is when their defense is weakest.

With a wave of Van Gaal's hand, the Manchester United players understood, and they began to consciously look for loopholes in Chelsea's defense.

In the 404th minute, Oscar shot weakly and was easily confiscated by De Gea. De Gea directly threw the ball with his hand to launch a counterattack. He threw the ball to Blind.

Blind turned and made a long pass and hit the ball to the right, Depay received the ball.

Depay ran all the way with the ball, and Rooney and Martial in the middle also ran forward. Chelsea's defensive players froze for a moment before reacting, and chased after them desperately.

Manchester United strikes back!

There was a burst of cheers at Old Trafford after a half-time silence. Azpilicueta just put in an assist and couldn’t get back at all. Chelsea’s defense only had Van Dijk, Stones and Marcos Alonso three people.

Three hit three!

Facing Marcos Alonso's defense, Depay learned to be smart this time, and went straight to the ground, relying on speed to forcibly overtake.

After opening his position, Depay chose to cut inside. His pace was very fast, and he broke into the penalty area in two steps. Marcos Alonso, who had just caught up, did not dare to foul, so he could only raise his hands and try to block Depay. Pei's position.

Seeing this, Stones had no choice but to step forward to pinch. At this time, Rooney was very smart. He immediately slowed down and left room for Depay to pass the ball in an inverted triangle.

Van Dijk had no choice but to stand in the middle, ready to block Rooney's shot at any time.But Depay chose to cross and point, Martial followed up and shot, Courtois was beyond his reach, and the football flew into the goal.

1 is better than 1!

Martial helped United level the score.

After the goal, Martial ran directly to the corner flag area and came to a slide rail. He was so excited.Not only did Van Gaal compare him with making a wish before the game, Martial also often compared himself with making a wish!

They are all young players, and they are all transferred from small teams to giants with super high net worth. Martial thinks that he is no worse than wishing!

In Martial's eyes, making a wish is just luck and a good platform. If he was born two years earlier, there should be no wishing.

Now that Martial is on a big platform like Manchester United, he naturally hopes to compete with Wishing and prove himself!

Both of them scored a goal in this game, and his own goal is more valuable. After all, his chances of shooting are less than wishing.

"Anthony Martial!"

Manchester United fans chanted Martial's name in unison, which put the French forward in a good mood, and he enjoyed the atmosphere very much.

"Van Gaal said before the game that Martial was no worse than Xu. I think he was right. Martial is our Xu, and he is younger!"

"Martial's goal reminds Chelsea, this is Old Trafford! This is Manchester United's home ground!"

Many neutral commentators are also cheering for Manchester United.

It's not that Chelsea is not popular, but that the commentators will always favor the weaker side, and they hope that the game will be better.

A few seasons ago, this was completely impossible to happen, but with the retirement of Ferguson and the strong rise of Chelsea, Manchester United's dominance in the Premier League has indeed declined.

In the eyes of neutral commentators, compared with Chelsea, Manchester United is weak.

It's just that Manchester United's players don't think so.

After the equalizer, their morale increased and they wanted to take the opportunity to overtake, but Chelsea would not give them such a chance. In the next few minutes, the two sides were at a stalemate, and no one could organize an effective attack.

The referee Anthony Taylor whistled, and the first half ended and the two sides fought to a 1-1 draw.

The Manchester United fans in the stands were very excited to see the team and Chelsea draw.

Whether they want to admit it or not, they have already subconsciously regarded Manchester United as a weaker team than Chelsea...
