Gao Xiaodong came to the penalty spot with the ball and was ready to kick the free kick.
Carrick came over and said, "Gao, do you want to cooperate?"
Carrick thinks that the free kick is about 30 meters away from the goal, and he wants to give Gao Xiaodong a long shot.
"No
Gao Xiaodong replied that after Michael Carrick recovered from injury, he wanted to take his free kick as the penalty. Today, the three big men in class 92 are not here. They all want to take Lao Zi's penalty.
Ferguson not only said at the press conference that Gao Xiaodong is the main free kicker for set pieces, but also said in the team. Although he did not directly say that Gao Xiaodong is the first free kicker, Ferguson stressed that other players would not seize Gao Xiaodong's right to the ball.
However, Carrick has been recuperating in the new season. He is not very clear about the changes of the team. He did not expect Gao Xiaodong to win the absolute trust of Ferguson so soon. So he asked, seeing Gao Xiaodong's attitude is so stiff, Carrick is a little surprised, but also a little upset. He is young, how can he have such a strong temper, and does not respect the elders.
Fletcher snickered and said, Michael, now you know this kid's pulling. It's not that I speak ill of him behind his back.
After more than ten minutes of competition, Gao Xiaodong has a clear understanding of Valencia's strength. His opponents have excellent defense and sharp counterattack. It's not easy to break their goal, so every chance of set pieces must be grasped.
Although the free kick is close to 30 meters away from the goal, Gao Xiaodong is born with supernatural power. The distance is completely achieved mainly depends on the footwork and shooting accuracy.
Manchester United are good at heading players to fight for the header in the penalty area, and Gao Xiaodong measured his own pace, ready to come to a long-distance shot.
Valencia goalkeeper Sanchez saw that Gao Xiaodong's run-up was more than ten meters away. He thought to himself, this boy is too exaggerated. Is he deliberately deceiving me? I have to be careful of his passing.
When the referee's whistle rang, Gao Xiaodong quickly ran to the penalty spot, and the offensive and defensive players in the penalty area also began to compete for positions.
Gao Xiaodong ran to the ball and wanted to shoot hard, but he saw that the goalkeeper bent his knees and was ready to save. He suddenly stopped, took back his right leg, and then twisted his left foot to shoot a curve ball into the top right corner of the goal.
Goalkeeper Sanchez has been ready to save, Gao Xiaodong stop that, shaking Sanchez almost spit blood, not waiting for his reaction, Gao Xiaodong left foot has begun to shoot.
Sanchez was hit by Gao Xiaodong's brain in an instant. Standing there, he watched the ball fly into the net without moving.
1: 0
all the people at the scene were stunned by Gao Xiaodong's sudden stop and change foot shooting. After the goal, only Gao Xiaodong raised his arms and ran wildly, while others, including the referee, were stunned.
After a brief silence, Manchester United fans cheered and clapped wildly.
"Hold the grass! I'm in
"God! There is also the operation of changing foot free throw! "
"The goalkeeper was fooled!"
"It's a cunning penalty!"
"It's like a basketball layup in the air!"
……
Ferguson pointed out the gum, raised his arms and rushed out, "good fight! Excellent! High! Good job
At the moment, Ferguson would like to run into the stadium and give Gao Xiaodong a hug. The left and right footed skills, the player, let alone Manchester United, are incomparable. Even in the world football world, few people can catch up.
Carrick is in a daze. He has never seen such deceitful free kick technique for such a straightforward English player. Now he understands why Gao Xiaodong has been at Manchester United for more than a month and is able to hold the penalty of set pieces. It's really awesome!
Berbatov doesn't agree with Gao Xiaodong's technique, but he doesn't agree with Gao Xiaodong's players. This kind of tricky free kick, even if the technique is twice as high as Gao Xiaodong's, may not be able to kick.
"Good! Great CCTV live commentator he poet was excited by Gao Xiaodong's free kick roared, "magic free kick! Xiao Dong has broken the gate of Valencia! it is beyond logic and above reason! It's incredible! Only Xiao Dong can kick such a free kick! How imaginative! Is this technology? Yes! But it's not just technology! This is a speculation on the psychology of the opponent! This is to beat the opponent in the fight of wits and bravery! 1: 0, United's first record! See if they can keep the win and break the unbeaten record in Spain
Valencia coach emery is a fool, that's OK! You can get in this way! How can this boy's left foot be so good! It's not worse than the right foot at all! How does this kid's head grow when he changes his feet temporarily? Different from ordinary people?
The most painful thing for emery is what to do later? Valencia is best at defensive counterattack, now home behind, Manchester United in this stadium has not won the ball, they certainly will not attack, behind Valencia can only play their own attack is not good at, think of Manchester United crazy counterattack, emery can not help but some shudder.
Emmeri's guess is good. After the game started again, the experienced and practical Ferguson made the players shrink their defense and hit Valencia's counterattack.Originally, Manchester United is a 4321 formation, Nani and Anderson pull to both sides, Gao Xiaodong retreats, and the formation becomes 451. Manchester United fight hard in midfield to prevent Valencia from infiltrating into Manchester United's forbidden area.
It has to be said that Ferguson's move is excellent. There are five players in Manchester United's midfield, and Valencia is difficult to penetrate even if they have Barcelona's short passing skills. When United used to partner Vidic and Elvis, there were still flaws in the centre back. Now Ferdinand is back, he is not afraid of the long pass and the bottom pass. Valencia is really difficult to break Manchester United's goal.
What makes Valencia even more painful is that it is more difficult for them to break through Manchester United's goal and prevent Manchester United's counterattack.
Berbatov is a man in the front court of Manchester United, but his ability of stopping and making the ball is very strong. Once Berbatov gives the ball to Gao Xiaodong and Nani, it depends on the three of them. Valencia's four players can't prevent it.
Fortunately, this is only a Champions League group match. Manchester United and Valencia have little problem in qualifying. The competition is only the first in the group. Valencia also has rich experience in European games. They are not in a hurry. After losing the ball, Valencia's players did not press on. Instead, they patiently arranged in the middle and side groups, looking for Manchester United's gaps and mistakes.
The pace of the game slowed down and Valencia controlled the ball, but it was difficult for the ball to reach Manchester United's 30 meter area, and it was more difficult for the ball to pass in Valencia's backcourt.
He Hui, the commentator at the scene, joked that "Manchester United has turned Valencia into Barcelona, but it is a pity that Valencia does not have the ability to cooperate in intensive defense."
However, Valencia's tactics are correct. They didn't give Manchester United the chance to play while the iron is hot. In the 27th minute of the game, Carrick's midfield pass was wrong. After Pablo's snatch, he shot hard in 25 places, but the ball was a little higher than the crossbar.
In the 34th minute of the game, Valencia suddenly quickened the pace, Mata even passed two people, passing from the left side of the restricted area. Van der Sar had no chance to move. It was a bit rash to attack and didn't get the ball. However, Valencia striker Soldado held the ball high in front of the restricted area and missed the chance to level.
Ferguson had no problem with his tactics. He didn't expect that the players almost lost the ball after two mistakes. He was so angry that he yelled at the court and wished he could replace them.
However, after two mistakes, Manchester United's players concentrated on 12 points and did not give Valencia a chance to shoot until the end of the first half.
