Football: Reject the national football team, I will join the German national team

As both sides returned to the same starting line, Stoke City fans also came alive!

Everyone was singing "We'll be with you" on the sidelines!

"We'll bewithyou, bewithyou, bewithyou..."

The Stoke City players also felt full of fighting spirit and began to fight actively.

Manchester United's midfield was indeed a little weak today, but Ancelotti obviously expected this.

Just let Herrera fall back, Modric and Xiaomai play in the midfield, and Ye Chen plays in the attacking midfielder position.

This becomes a diamond midfield, and the formation changes in seconds!

When the opponent attacks the flank, the midfielder can also retreat to help.

Of course, Manchester United's footwork is more delicate, so the ball possession ratio is about 64:.

Manchester United once again took the initiative.

After losing the ball, Manchester United continued to look for opportunities in the flank.

But Ronaldo was closely followed by two defenders today and it was difficult for him to find opportunities.

Grealish also got the ball many times and broke through on the left.

But Stoke City coach Mark Hughes has watched a lot of Manchester United games and is quite familiar with Grealish.

Zouma was directly sent to double-team Diouf who was retreating.

Grealish was struggling a bit.

19 minutes 21 seconds.

Manchester United corner kick attack.

This time Modric was looking for the front point.

Ye Chen was originally outside the restricted area, sneaking into the restricted area.

Fletcher, who was defending, lost the ball and allowed Ye Chen to get the first point.

A header hit the goal hard.

The ball went straight through Butland's defense.

But Zouma in front of the goal reacted very quickly and kicked the ball away...

As the Manchester United players' physical fitness declined, home team Stoke City looked for opportunities in the midfield.

After Joe Allen passed the ball back and forth with Fletcher, he suddenly gave the ball to Shaqiri.

Shaqiri is short but very strong and extremely fast, and is nicknamed the Swiss Messi.

He has a characteristic, that is, no matter how poorly he performs in the club, he can always score world-class goals in the national team.

In his previous life, the 32-year-old Shaqiri scored an unstoppable world wave in the European Cup, and this goal made Shaqiri the only European player to score in six consecutive tournaments from the 2014 World Cup to the 2024 European Cup.

You know, this is a glorious record that even Ronaldo has never achieved.

Shaqiri took the ball and faced Cancelo directly.

Although Cancelo is fast, Shaqiri directly plays with him with his body.

Cancelo staggered and couldn't catch up with the opponent at all.

After Shaqiri broke into the penalty area, he made an inverted triangle pass back.

"Oh!"

Joe Allen quickly followed up from the backcourt and made a powerful shot.

Fortunately, this ball paid tribute to Ronaldo at the beginning of the game, and he hit the ball directly into the sky.

Stoke City did have problems with their ability to seize opportunities.

The time blinked to 35 minutes.

Stoke City's Shaqiri broke through on the right and was tackled directly by Cancelo.

Cancelo received a yellow card for this.

The little guy is still not calm enough and is a little bit drunk!

As the captain, Ye Chen quickly reminded him to stay rational at all times.

It doesn’t matter even if he breaks through, just trust your teammates!

Cancelo is quite obedient.

After all, he is not yet world-class, and he has also begun to enjoy the joy of being a Manchester United player...

Recently, a lot of hot and unrestrained girls on INS have expressed their love to him, saying that they want to study their body structure with him.

Cancelo has already been in contact with several girls...

For a while, there were even too many girls and I couldn't chat with them all.

Of course, he also knew why he was favored by so many girls.

So we definitely cannot be negligent during training.

The competition is even more exciting...

Moreover, he has a strong desire to win.

36 minutes 10 seconds.

Diouf sent the ball directly into the penalty area.

Zouma got the ball in front but he didn't shoot.

His position was at the 12-yard line, too far from the goal.

So he chose to go back.

Choupo-Moting, who was lying in ambush at the back post, rushed to the top of the ball at the first opportunity.

But De Gea in front of the goal did not give him any chance this time and held the ball firmly.

As soon as he got the ball, De Gea kicked it directly to Ronaldo in front of him.

After Ronaldo came to Manchester United, he also had one more option.

Of course, unlike Ronaldo in his previous life who came to Manchester United at the age of 36, his competitive state is still at its peak at this time!

But the accuracy of this shot was a bit off.

Peters on the back line headed the ball back to the goalkeeper.

Bartram hugged the ball and kicked it directly to the front court.

Ake judged the landing point in advance, and immediately passed the ball to Ronaldo the moment the ball fell.

At this time, Ronaldo also completed the position exchange with Ye Chen.

With the ball, Ronaldo accelerated forward, but while running, he saw the direction his teammates in the frontcourt were running!

"Oh!"

A direct long-distance pass.

What we are looking for is the blank area on the left.

Ye Chen was being entangled by Weimer and Camron at this time, double-teamed, with two men advancing and retreating.

But Grealish started at high speed.

Zouma's speed is not slow among defenders, but the problem is that it is a little bit slower than Grealish!

After breaking into the penalty area, he had left Zouma behind.

But when he got the ball, goalkeeper Butland had already guarded the near post.

There is a high probability that a forced shot will be blocked.

So Grealish didn't shoot, but instead dribbled the ball to the edge of the penalty area, continuing to increase the distance between himself and Zouma.

next second...

Grealish turned around and made a cross with his right foot!

"Oh!"

Football goes back to where it came from!

In front of all the fans present, the football landed on the right goal post.

Ye Chen turned his head to look at where the football landed, and Ronaldo followed up and tapped it lightly.

Like a dragonfly skimming the water, the ball was sent into the empty goal.

Bartram in front of the goal couldn't move in time...

"Goooooooooal!!!"

"Cristiano Ronaldo!!!"

"Manchester United has taken the lead!"

"While Stoke City was trying their best to restrict Ye, Ronaldo got an incredible opportunity!"

"Of course, Grealish's calm handling of the ball was also crucial, and his excellent cross was also the key to this goal!"

After scoring the goal, Ronaldo rushed to the sidelines and slid on his knees in a handsome manner.

His mouth opened into an O shape.

Ye Chen and the others immediately rushed forward.

Seeing Ronaldo score again, Ye Chen was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Every time Manchester United encountered problems before, he was needed to carry Manchester United forward. Although De Bruyne and Modric are both top midfielders, goals still have to be scored by the forwards.

But Lukaku just plays a supporting role.

But now with Ronaldo, I feel like I have even more power...

Now many fans are calling for Manchester United to win the championship with 38 consecutive victories and replicate Chelsea’s legendary record in the past.

To be honest, Ye Chen knew it was difficult, even as difficult as ascending to heaven.

But he was willing to give it a try...

He was able to do it when he led Chelsea, so why can't he do it now at Manchester United?

Just do it! ! !

Ps: Brothers, here is a chapter before watching the game!!!
