From the man behind the football king to the football king

David Silva didn't stop the ball but gave it back to him, like a wall.

Stones received the ball and he was already directly facing Manchester United's centre-back.

This is a very dangerous distance, certainly for Manchester United.

He can cooperate with Manchester City's flexible forwards here. As long as he runs into space, he can launch a through ball.

Or he doesn't need to look at the movements of his forward teammates at all, and just pushes the pass into the open space. If he can catch it, it will be a winning goal.

Can't get it? The chance of not getting it is too low.

"Awesome! Beautiful offense!"

"Good shot! Nice transfer!"

The moment the ball hit the net, thunderous cheers erupted from the stands at Old Trafford. The Manchester United fans jumped up with their arms raised, then they hugged each other, slapping each other on the shoulders and backs, shouting hoarsely with tears in their eyes.

Stones lowered his head to adjust the football, intending to push a straight pass. On his left, there is a space between Manchester United's center backs Maguire and Van Dijk. As long as the football can be passed, whether it is Iheanacho or Nolito, they can receive the ball and face the goalkeeper directly. It's hard not to score a goal with such an opportunity.

Because Fernandinho has filled the central defender position, there is an open space within 20 meters in front of him, and no one can pose a threat to him.

Mourinho on the sidelines jumped up with open arms after seeing Rooney score, as if he had won the victory.

Otamendi predicted in advance that Ibrahimovic was likely to receive the ball, so he quickly caught up with Ibrahimovic.

“In the Manchester derby, Manchester United wins first!!”

Bravo quickly moved toward the center of the goal while shouting: "Don't let him shoot!"

Mourinho saw this scene on the coaching bench and couldn't help but stand up from his seat. He knew what this meant!

This is an opportunity that Manchester United has practiced countless times in daily training, specifically for Stones!

At this moment, the shouts of Manchester United fans reached a new peak. They are familiar with Manchester United's football style and know exactly what kind of opportunities this attack has.

Bruno was shouting: "Brothers, the game is not over yet! It is not the time to be happy yet, we have to score more goals! Remember Manchester United's football is to attack! Don't stop, we have to be faster!!"

Rooney raised his foot and shot the football into the upper corner. Although Bravo struggled to turn around and save, it was to no avail. He could only watch the football fly over his head and rush into the goal.

At this moment, he saw Ibrahimovic in front of him making a move to shoot, but he was still at least five meters away from Ibrahimovic, and he had no time to defend...

This is his chance to make amends!

After Ibrahimovic dunked Otamendi, he will definitely have to adjust. The adjustment will take time, and he will have the opportunity to rely on it.

Watching Rooney hit the football, many Manchester United fans jumped up from their seats in front of the TV. While they were cheering for Manchester United's goal, they were also applauding Bruno's wonderful performance.

Manchester United has waited long enough for this moment, this is the opportunity created by the whole team for him!

Otamendi saw Ibrahimovic shooting and fell to the ground to block it.

"This is Manchester United! Fast and sharp, finding holes in the opponent's defense to exploit in very fast passing and running. They did it!"

But do you want to throw in the towel? Guardiola would not do such a thing.

"Great! We're ahead! We're ahead of Manchester City!"

"Bruno's through ball was brilliant!"

"Bruno——!!" the commentator supporting Manchester United shouted.

The difference between a central defender and a defensive midfielder is that in the face of this situation, the defensive midfielder can resolutely rush to defend and try to entangle the opponent's ball player, because there is a central defender behind him who can fill the gap for him.

In less than three seconds, the football was passed into the open area, and Manchester United completed all the actions from defense to offense.

Can Otamendi stop Ibrahimovic's shot?

Can Ibrahimovic break through Otamendi's defense?

"Long live! Manchester United!!"

Otamendi chased Ibrahimovic, and Fernandinho realized that he had made a big mistake. He hurriedly turned back to defend.

………………

"What a wonderful collaboration, which fully reflects the characteristics of Manchester United!"

For Fernandinho this is his chance!

"Rooney shoots! The ball...the ball goes in! Beautiful! Good goal!"

He passed the football directly to Gundogan who was closest to him. Gundogan turned around and swept the football to Bruno in front.

"Faster!!!"

There is nothing to say about conceding the ball this time. The opponent planned carefully and followed every step, which ultimately led to his own defense making a mistake.

This is Manchester United's attack, a fast and sharp attack!

"Oops..." Stones turned his head and saw Bruno, who had left him far behind. He knew that he had made a mistake, and now he could only fight back to defend, while hoping that Fernandinho could help him delay the opponent's progress. pace of.

Everyone forgot to breathe and stared at the two people on the field, completely ignoring others.

The same is true for Fernandinho. He only has Ibrahimovic in his eyes. He wants to rush forward and cut off the football to make up for the mistakes he made.

………………

The atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense.

At the same time, Ibrahimovic crossed here diagonally from the center and caught the ball, one-on-one!

Fernandinho was originally at the back. When he saw Bruno dribbling the ball towards him, he pounced on him without thinking, and the space behind him was thus drawn out.

………………

"Rooney, Rooney, Rooney -"

Just when he turned around, Bruno also ran past him. He hesitated, but still chose to continue chasing Ibrahimovic.

"Ibrahimovic! Ibrahimovic - shoot!"

Stones saw Fernandinho when he was chasing back, and he remembers cursing in his heart: "This idiot!"

As the core of Manchester United's defense, Kante is specifically used by Manchester United to prevent Stones from getting in. Before, Stones looked left and right without noticing Kanter. It was Kanter who was hiding and waiting for Stones.

Kanter poked the football to the center back Van Dijk. Although he was kicked by Stones, he didn't care and turned around and ran forward.

Just when he raised his foot to pass the ball, a foot appeared in front of him and stabbed the football before him!

And he was kicked on this foot and staggered!

The person who ruined his good deeds was Kanter!

Not far away from him, the Manchester City coaching bench looked silent. Guardiola had a sullen face and bit his lower lip.

………………

Because Otamendi was taken out of the defensive position by Ibrahimovic, Rooney has no one to defend here!

Stones came up from behind.

When he passed the ball just now, Kanter poked his ball away. This time I want to get the field back and poke the football away when Bruno shoots!

If Bruno really shoots, he does have a chance to do so, because the preparation time for shooting is often longer. But Bruno didn't want to shoot. After receiving Ibrahimovic's pass, he twisted his body and immediately passed the football out again. This time he passed it to the other side and gave it to Rooney!

Opportunities like this don't come around often, but Manchester United really seized this opportunity and scored.

"Ibrahimovic received the ball! Not offside! Not offside!"

This situation often occurs in football matches. Forwards who have too good opportunities often fail to score, and they can push out those empty goals, but such an opportunity did not appear for Rooney.

Bruno increased his speed to the fastest and rushed forward with the football.

………………

But the central defender cannot do this, because once he pounces on him, there will be a large empty space behind him, and the opponent can fight however he wants.

All Manchester United fans are looking forward to Bruno's shot.

Guardiola is proud. In the past few years, he has dominated La Liga, the Bundesliga and even the entire European football world. He rarely encounters opponents. Even if he is defeated, the winning side is extremely embarrassed.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!"

"Long live! Manchester United!!!"

Bruno caught the ball!

Bruno was indeed advancing at high speed just now, but when he approached the penalty area, he suddenly slowed down, allowing Fernandinho to pass him, and then he received the ball from Ibrahimovic!

At the same time, the real center back Stones has long been left far behind!

When Fernandinho was about to move forward, Ibrahimovic passed the ball.

The Swedish forward passed the football away from Fernandinho, and the direction of the pass was behind him!

"Look at Chubruno's two passes, they are so beautiful! He completely took the movements of Manchester City's defense into his own hands."

Rooney, who scored the goal, hugged Bruno, who passed the ball for him. More teammates swarmed in and surrounded the two of them.

Rooney received the ball unmarked. , the opportunities Bruno created for him couldn't be better.

Sure enough, as if to confirm Stones' fears, Bruno saw Fernandinho rushing towards him and passed the football into the open space behind him.

Even after the Manchester City players saw the football being passed to Bruno, their first reaction was to guard against his long shot.

But this was just a fake move. Ibrahimovic did not actually shoot. Instead, he used his left foot to dunk the football back and deceive Otamendi away.

Van Dijk did not stop after receiving Kanter's pass. If he let the football stay at his feet for one more second, he might lose the ball. If he loses the ball in this position, it will be doomed.

For example, in the Champions League semi-finals of the 2009-2010 season, Barcelona led by him was eliminated by Mourinho's Inter Milan, but Guardiola refused to admit that it was their failure. In their view, Mourinho and Inter Milan were eliminated from the competition. The victory was stolen from him, and the Champions League was also stolen from them.

"Manchester United leads Manchester City by one goal!"

This is also true. Public opinion after the game almost overwhelmingly supported Barcelona and was very disdainful of the victory of Mourinho and Inter Milan.

The famous NBA star Nash mocked Mourinho for parking a bus in front of Inter Milan's goal.
