I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils - Chapter 414

Rooney is an offensive player, he is very clear about the defensive pressure of the team, but he is helpless.

Long before the game, Ye Su told him that everyone else in the team can return to defense, but he can’t. Because he is the most threatening person in the team, staying in front can make Real Madrid feel the threat of counterattack, but if he withdraws, it will allow Real Madrid to attack unscrupulously.

Rooney can clearly see the holes in the opponent’s defense, but the problem now is that Manchester United can’t get the ball. Without the ball, even if the opponent puts the goal in front of you, it is in vain.

Real Madrid did really well in the first half, with full control. Even Rooney himself felt that if he continued to play like this, it would be sooner or later that he was scored.

Even if it wasn’t for Manchester United’s defense to be good enough, the score now would not be 0:0.

“It won’t work to keep kicking like this!” Rooney thought with a frown.

As the team’s captain and offensive player, the most important thing he should consider is how to score goals.

Real Madrid’s left defense has too many gaps, Marcelo’s defensive ability is insufficient, Cross and Modric are more involved in the offense, at most there is only one Ramos. As long as he gets the ball at the right time, Rooney is sure to create a little trouble for the other side, and even score a goal!

But the question now is, how to get the ball?

………………

“When you are pressing, you try to get them to pass the ball to the left to Marcelo.” Taking advantage of a breathing opportunity, Rooney took advantage of Harry Kane, Vardy, De Bruyne, Bruno Fernandez and others. They all called up and told their teammates what they thought.

Bruno Fernandez brightened his eyes and asked, “Captain, are you trying to find a breakthrough in Marcelo?”

Rooney nodded, and said meaningfully: “This Brazilian is very sticky.”

In fact, this is not surprising. Isn’t it normal for Brazilian players, especially offensive Brazilian wide players, to stick the ball?

Although Marcelo has always been a Real Madrid defender, he is most commendable in world football. It is never his help to Real Madrid on the defensive end, but the threat he poses to his opponent on the offensive end.

The contribution of the Brazilian left-back on the offensive end makes him deeply loved by his forward teammates including Real Madrid’s top star Cristiano Ronaldo. Many Real Madrid fans even affectionately call him the favorite of the Galaxy Battleship.

Rooney has been paying attention to Marcelo’s problems since the preparations. After the game, he has also been observing the Brazilian’s state and performance. He thinks this aspect can still be tried.

He is now the captain of the team, and the teammates in the locker room also persuaded him. After listening to his words, they all nodded.

“Okay, we get it.”

“I will try to push their ball to the left side.”

…

Every player’s pass is divided into sectors. As long as one side is properly pressed when pressing, the opponent will often pass the ball to the other side habitually. Therefore, as long as everyone has a unified mindset, it is possible to push the ball to the left side.

Rooney nodded heavily and said: “Don’t worry, as long as the ball reaches Marcelo’s feet and the timing is right, I will definitely be able to grab it.”

Although Rooney has been most talked about in the past two or three years for his offense, but in fact, his wide range of aggressive running and frontcourt press are also his expertise.

Today’s world’s top three football players, Cristiano Ronaldo is praised for his strong physique and ability to stay in the air, Messi’s ability to break through beyond humans in the football arena, Rooney is the one with the most balanced overall ability, he can be called Is a true all-around player.

………………

With the withdrawal of Manchester United, Real Madrid began to control the situation on the field. As the team’s full-back, Marcelo also began to take on some of the tasks involved in organization and offense.

According to the arrangement of the coaching staff before the game, after he presses up, Ramos will appropriately move his position to the left, and the midfielder Cross will occasionally shrink into the penalty area, turning into a formation similar to a three-back.

As for the original right back Lucas Vazquez, this guy is a winger, how could he expect him to stay on the defensive end?

As the team controlled the pace and possession of the ball, Marcelo began to get more opportunities to get the ball on the left.

Manchester United quickly launched a counterattack after a backcourt steal. Maguire made a long pass and sent the ball directly to Real Madrid’s half, forcing Modric to chase all the way back and pass the ball back to goalkeeper Navas. After Navas stopped the ball with his foot, he turned and passed it to Ramos and then to Marcelo.

Rooney didn’t have time to grab the first one, so he simply didn’t go forward and let Marcelo dribble the ball forward.

………………

The Brazilian player, as before, drove the ball quickly along the left, and under the interference of Rooney, it passed to Cross.

Cross passed to Vazquez and then to Modric near the center line, but there was still no chance and passed back to Marcelo.

But this time, Marcelo hasn’t even stopped the ball, and Rooney, who had planned for a long time, rushed in front of him.

How to do?

Marcelo has no other concerns. He has no way to think about whether Rooney had premeditated. His only idea is how to protect the ball and how to get rid of Rooney.

Rooney obviously expected him to think this way. When he received the ball, he approached him and squeezed him with his body.

When Marcelo played football, he was not good at his physical fitness, mainly because of his technique and passing. When he was young, his speed was good, but now he is not young.

Although Rooney’s age is two years older than Marcelo, he has long played in the Premier League where physical confrontation is important, and his physical fitness is better than Marcelo. Marcelo staggered when he squeezed close. It was this time that Rooney took his foot decisively and broke the ball.

………………

Rooney had just intercepted the ball and immediately went straight behind Marcelo at the fastest speed.

At this time, the Bernabéu Stadium burst into exclamation. Nearby Modric rushed over immediately, but as soon as Rooney speeded up, he immediately caught up with the ball and strode forward.

“Manchester United broke the ball in the frontcourt. Rooney sprinted with the ball very fast!”

“This sudden steal and counterattack caught Real Madrid by surprise.”

Cross is not far from Marcelo. He knows very well that this is the critical moment for Real Madrid to switch from defensive to offensive. Rooney suddenly interrupted the ball and hit a counterattack. Real Madrid’s defense will definitely be flawed, especially on the left.

When Cross saw Rooney striding to dribble the ball, he realized that this was the opportunity and decisively chose to grab the ball.

Rooney’s vision and overall outlook have always been very good, and he has already predicted the reaction of Real Madrid players. Modric and Marcelo have been left behind by him, as long as he doesn’t slow down, they can’t catch up. As long as he passed Cross, he would be able to kick the door directly. That’s why Rooney deliberately wade a bit bigger to induce the other party to come out.

As soon as Cross grabbed, Rooney immediately accelerated again. Obviously, the German midfielder did not expect that Rooney had not tried his best just now, and was shocked and decisively released the shovel. But Rooney was the first step. He stabbed the ball and the ball passed by Cross’s foot, while Rooney himself continued to chase the ball without any reduction in speed. The German sat down on the turf and looked at Rooney desperately.

………………

“A beautiful ball! Rooney broke through Real Madrid’s defense with the ball!”

The entire Bernabéu stadium was exclaimed.

Real Madrid’s goalkeeper Navas had already shifted his position to the left when Rooney stole the ball, staring at him as if he was facing a major enemy. He saw Kroos get on, but was split by Rooney, and it was passed in the blink of an eye.

Navas was shocked and saw the ball rolling into the penalty area. Rooney was still chasing him. He had no other choice. He immediately abandoned the goal and threw his arms towards the ball.

Although it was a let go, Navas did not lose his calm at all, still observing Rooney’s movements. After chasing, he is definitely not able to catch up with Rooney, but after abandoning the goal, he can use his body to block Rooney’s shooting angle. But the premise is that he has to judge what action Rooney wants to take.

Rooney didn’t have enough time to visit people, because he only had one chance.

This Real Madrid team has been formed for many years. The players are not only strong, but also very close to each other. From stealing the ball to passing the cross to the penalty area, Ramos and Varane have returned to the penalty area. He has no choice.

So, just before catching up with the ball, Rooney made a move to smash the ball. He firmly believes that Navas must be aware of his shooting ability. Therefore, he smashes the ball with his right foot and hits the goal directly with his left foot. This must also be within the alert range of Navas.

………………

Sure enough, Rooney made a gesture to smash the ball, Navas reacted immediately, and the center of gravity began to tilt. The initiative is in Rooney’s hands, and if he doesn’t make preparations in advance, he can’t stop it at all.

But Rooney paused deliberately, and when Navas began to shift his focus, he pushed his right foot directly. The football slid past Navas on the left side, very fast, and it was too late when the Costa Rica goalkeeper reacted and wanted to take a shot.

After the football slid through Navas, it was almost in a straight line, rubbing the post, and hitting Real Madrid’s goal.

At this time, the defense was in place and Ramos, who wanted to prevent the ball from entering the net, slid into the goal, but it was useless.

“GOOOOOAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!”

“In the 27th minute, Manchester United scored first! A key goal from Rooney!”

The entire Bernabéu stadium is boiling. The fewest number of Manchester United fans burst out the most enthusiastic cheers and applause.

Rooney was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium, rushed all the way to the stand where the Manchester United fans were, slid and knelt on the grass, raising his arms high.

“Rooney has done a good job! Marcelo made an unexpected mistake. After he was intercepted by Rooney, the Manchester United captain drove the ball straight in, as if into no one’s land, especially with a wonderful man ball. Cross.”

“The whole process of scoring is very fast, which can be said to be very surprising. But this is the quick counterattack of Manchester United, they are always so fast!”

“Real Madrid’s defense has problems again, and Zidane should once again be responsible for his choice. Although the loss in the first leg at Old Trafford made Real Madrid passive. But this is the case in this game. With aggressive play, Zidane’s choice is still questionable.”

………………

Rooney celebrated with his teammates on the sidelines, but at the same time he did not forget to remind his teammates: “Don’t be careless, don’t be careless, continue to stabilize the defense, stay focused, and strive to defend the score in the first half!”

Rooney’s shout also represents the aspirations of the Manchester United players, but the Real Madrid players on the opposite side were also completely angered!

The game fell behind 0:1, and the total score of the two rounds was rewritten to 2:6. Real Madrid was truly driven to a desperate situation!

In the subsequent games, Real Madrid obviously played more aggressively, and the threat on the offensive end was also greater.

Only four minutes after Rooney scored, Real Madrid has played a very threatening attack. Modric made a straight pass in the middle, and Marcelo, who had just made a fatal error, made up for it. After getting the ball, he rubbed out a wonderful pass with the back of his right foot on the left side of the penalty area. Benzema scored a header from close range in the small penalty area in the center to equalize the score for Real Madrid.

This goal also completely ignited Real Madrid’s offensive passion, and all the fans at the Bernabéu Stadium also cheered wildly.

In the 44th minute, it was another pass from Modric. Ronaldo broke into the left side of the penalty area again. When facing Maguire’s defense, the Portuguese forward suddenly fell to the ground. Maguire angrily accused the Portuguese of flopping.

Although the referee finally signaled the game to continue, but did not sentence the Portuguese to flop. Judging from the slow-motion playback of the game, Ronaldo is indeed suspected of diving.

But just a minute later, after Modric and Ronaldo continued to cooperate on the left, assisted Benzema with a right-footed push, and once again broke the Manchester United goal ~www.mtlnovel.com~ to reverse the score.

Benzema, who scored twice, rushed out of the court with great excitement.

2:1!

Real Madrid scored two goals in just over ten minutes. The entire Bernabéu stadium was cheering and celebrating frantically.

If in the first twenty minutes or so, Real Madrid firmly controlled the situation on the field, but never managed to break Manchester United’s goal, then in the last ten minutes, the Galaxy battleship was like a beast with its minions. They almost firmly controlled the first half of the game and did not leave many opportunities for Manchester United.

At the same time, everyone has to admit that Real Madrid’s left wing is indeed full of offensive power.

Both goals were all planned from the left, which completely blasted Manchester United’s right.

Controlling the ball power and rhythm on the court, Real Madrid can continuously plan more and more threatening offensives.
