Chapter 898 Changes and Potential of the Deadly Enemy
Seeing the referee Marina awarded a penalty kick, cheers were heard in the stands at Old Trafford Stadium, and the Red Devils stood up one after another, raised their fists and roared at the stadium.
Ferguson rushed out of the coach's seat and gave a thumbs up at referee Marina, praising him for the accuracy and decisiveness of the penalty.
Mancini rushed to the sidelines angrily. He spread his arms exaggeratedly, looking aggrieved, as if Lescott had not met Gao Xiaodong at all, and Gao Xiaodong was pretending to fall.
Seeing that referee Marina did not look at the sidelines, Mancini rushed towards the fourth official and complained to the fourth official Atkinson.
Atkinson smiled and said, "Manjo, forget it, Marina's punishment is fine."
Mancini said angrily: "How come there is no problem? Gao Xiaodong fell too exaggeratedly. He is so strong. As for the time being you touch it?"
Atkinson smiled and said, "That's also a touch, Lescott didn't touch the ball."
Mancini said angrily: "The penalty was awarded when contacting the body hair, and Manchester City will never win at Old Trafford." After that, he walked back to the coach's seat angrily and punched the windshield.
Gao Xiaodong took the penalty kick.
With Gao Xiaodong winning the Golden Ball Award and being elected as vice captain, his status at Manchester United has increased dramatically, and no one will publicly question his penalty kicks and free kicks.
When he reached the penalty spot, Gao Xiaodong looked at Johart and began to measure his steps backwards.
Johart was very nervous and thought to himself that this kid might have to shoot violently again. The speed was too fast and he couldn't react at all. I had to save it in advance, but this kid was versatile, which side should I pounce?
Johart had not made a decision after the referee Marina whistled. It was not until Gao Xiaodong kicked up that he rushed to the left side of the goal.
However, Gao Xiaodong made a long-distance run-up posture to mislead Joe Hart. After Joe Hart saved, Gao Xiaodong kicked into the middle of the goal.
The ball flew like lightning to score the goal net, 2:0, Gao Xiaodong scored twice and scored his 31st goal in the league.
After scoring the goal, Gao Xiaodong ran to the sidelines and ran to find Ferguson to hug him.
Ferguson was rushing to the sidelines with his unchanging celebration method. When he saw Gao Xiaodong rushing towards him like a bear, he was so scared that he quickly flashed to the side. His old bone couldn't resist Gao Xiaodong's tossing.
However, Ferran, who was following closely behind Ferguson, did not dodge and was directly knocked to the ground by Gao Xiaodong and pressed under him.
Gao Xiaodong was only over 80 kilograms, so it didn't matter if he pressed it, but Gao Xiaodong was fast and it was really not easy to hit. Feilan was so shocked that he almost suffocated and couldn't even say anything congratulations.
He Hui, a commentator of China CCTV, said excitedly: "You can shoot explosively and skillfully, you can shoot smartly, you can be powerful and cunning, and you can have comprehensive skills and clear minds. Last summer, Manchester United spent 80 million yuan. On the other hand, Manchester City spent more than 100 million yuan in summer transfers and more than 30 million yuan in winter transfers, but they still can't beat Manchester United, which is a new and old one..."
With Gao Xiaodong winning the Golden Globe Award, He Hui is now basically giving a live commentator every game. Even for the bottom team, He Hui will come, because no matter what team he plays, as long as Gao Xiaodong plays, there is absolutely no shortage of ratings. Now Gao Xiaodong has become a Chinese idol player and has more fans than many first-tier stars.
"Chinese fans are also suffering. Such a player has failed to be selected for the national team because of his corruption and incompetent Football Association. If Gao Xiaodong can be selected for the Asian Qualifiers in the 10-year World Cup, the Chinese team will definitely not miss the South African World Cup. Now the anti-corruption and anti-gangster in the football world has come to an end. The chairman and vice chairman were taken down. In the just-concluded Asian Cup group stage, China is in the same group as Uzbekistan, Qatar, and Kuwait. In the end, China won one win, one draw and one loss, ranked third. It was the first time in history that the group did not qualify. Head coach Gao Bo is likely to be dismissed. It can be said that Chinese football has fallen to the bottom. I hope Xiaodong can appreciate the pain of Chinese fans and lead the national team out of Asia and enter the Brazilian World Cup final circle."
When He Hui used to comment on Gao Xiaodong's game, he rarely talked about the national team. The main reason is that Gao Xiaodong had conflicts with the chairman and vice chairman of the Football Association. His relationship with the head coach of the national team, Gao Bo, seemed to be bad. He Hui could not afford to offend anyone. Now leaders who had conflicts with Gao Xiaodong were under double supervision, and it is a high probability that they would be sentenced. Moreover, domestic fans calling for Gao Xiaodong to join the national team are getting increasingly high. He Hui has also gradually begun to talk about Gao Xiaodong's joining the national team recently.
However, He Hui was not optimistic about this. Although the Football Association Chairman and Vice Chairman, who had conflicts with Gao Xiaodong, had double-regulated regulations, no one dared to say whether the Football Association leaders would give up their pride to apologize to Gao Xiaodong and invite Gao Xiaodong to the national team. After all, the thinking of the bureaucrats in the Football Association is unique.
Moreover, even if the Football Association leaders invite Gao Xiaodong to join the national team, Gao Xiaodong may not agree, because the current national team head coach Gao Bo and Gao Xiaodong had a little holiday. At that time, in order to run for the national team head coach, Gao Bo was under the guise of inviting Gao Xiaodong back. However, after Gao Bo took office, he was afraid that the power of the Football Association chairman did not dare to recruit Gao Xiaodong, which made Gao Xiaodong feel deceived and very dissatisfied with Gao Bo. Later, although Gao Bo apologized to Gao Xiaodong, he and Gao Xiaodong did not ease up. After Chairman Yang stepped down and the new chairman Wei Ge came on stage, Gao Bo continued to serve as the head coach of the national team, but the narrow-minded Gao Bo did not continue to invite Gao Xiaodong to join the national team, which caused the tragic result that the Asian Cup group failed to appear.
He Hui saw Gao Xiaodong scored twice to help Manchester United reverse Manchester City and become a derby hero. He sighed and complained. In just a while, the situation on the field changed tremendously.
Seeing that the score was behind, Mancini was unable to score a 451 formation. He made another adjustment, replaced the midfielder Milner, and replaced the striker Dzeko, who was bought during the winter break, and the formation became 442.
Dzeko, 25, is a Bosnian player.
He played for Wolfsburg before transferring to Manchester City. As the core, he led Wolfsburg to win the first Bundesliga championship in history and won the Bundesliga top scorer. His transfer fee of 32 million euros is also the highest transfer record in the Bundesliga.
Dzeko is 1.93 meters tall, with accurate shooting skills and good heading. He is a rare top center.
Previously, Manchester City did not have the effect of using Tevez to play forward or Balotelli to play forward. The two of them had no heading ability and could not form a fulcrum in the frontcourt.
After Dzeko came on the court, he was able to grab a header from Vidic, create a chance for Balotelli, let Balotelli deal with the inexperienced Smalin, and head the ball for Yaya Toure and Barry who were in the front, allowing them to shoot from a long time.
Mancini's most important tactic is inserted into the back midfield. After Dzeko came on the court, Manchester City finally made his own advantage and began to create murderous intent at the forefront of Manchester United's penalty area.
Because of Ferdinand's injury, Vidic could not suppress Dzeko, Smalin could not defend Balotelli alone, and the back line was very tight. Unless they contracted their defense, there would be no good way to curb such a simple and efficient offense like Manchester City.
