Chapter 114 vs. Fulham (3)
"Shevchenko has the ball, and his teammates are in good positions. Let's see what he will do! He contributed two assists in the last game. Will he choose to pass the ball this time?"
Shevchenko saw the opponent's retreat.
He smiled.
In the past, he might choose to pass the ball, but now he is determined to break through.Since the opponent retreated, if he wanted to place the decisive battle between the two sides near the restricted area line, then he would force them to fight him to the death in advance, so as to find a chance!
So Shevchenko stopped looking around and rushed towards one of Fulham's central defenders at a high speed!
After all, the central defender's retreat cannot really turn around and run. They retreat facing the offensive player, and the speed of doing so is very slow.
So after Shevchenko accelerated forward, the Fulham players were shocked!
If you are really forced by the opponent to fight to the death here, then it is not in line with the safety principle of a defensive player.
For an offensive player, winning is one-handed, and it doesn't matter if you lose, and you can even counter-rob; but for a defensive player, winning is fine, and once you lose, it may result in a loss.
Even if it is only 1% possible, the defensive players will never let him happen.
But the development of things is not based on their persistence.
People are coming to your door, so you can't help but fight, right?
A central defender of Fulham could only greet him.
To be honest, even if they come up, the Fulham central defender is not sure, and Shevchenko will definitely break through.
Running up by himself will make the already weak defense line stretched.
From the corner of the Fulham defender's eyes, he saw Samaras quietly appearing in the air behind him.
He turned his eyes again, and saw Shevchenko raised his arch.
This is the rhythm of passing the ball!
His body made an interception subconsciously.
Then Shevchenko's kick with the arch of his foot turned into a swipe of the ball. With a swipe, the football passed through the opponent's crotch and bypassed the opponent in a flash.
"Defend with concentration." Shevchenko did not forget to remind the opponent while flashing past the opponent.
Looking at the half-hearted defense of the opponent, how can they cover everything?
After passing the defender, Shevchenko was left with the opponent's last defender.
The defender was even following Samaras, not expecting his teammates to be broken so easily.
He immediately dropped Samaras and rushed to Shevchenko.
And Shevchenko, who passed the defender, didn't stop, he didn't even make adjustments, and shot straight away.
The Fulham keeper in front of the goal hadn't even adjusted before the ball flew in front of him.
By the time he reacted, the football had hit the net.
The ball is in!
1:1 Manchester City equalized the score!
This goal is not exciting, but very tough!
This is a tough Shevchenko!A tough Ukrainian nuclear warhead!
This is the shooter!
In the stands, after Shevchenko's goal, there was a brief silence, and then a huge cheer broke out quickly.
Because they equalized the score!
"Long live, Manchester City!"
"Forward, Blue Moon!"
Amidst their cheers were the ugly faces of the Fulham fans.
After landing, Shevchenko stared at the football until it flew into the goal and hit the net.
Then he turned around on the spot, raised his head, clenched his fists with both hands, and raised them up!
A domineering arrogance that is not angry and arrogant, centered on him, bursts out in all directions!
The players swept by his eyes, at that moment, even had the urge to worship!
Mido, who rushed over to celebrate, even hesitated for a moment.
Shevchenko's eyes are sharp, and there is unyielding and joy in it.
This ball allowed him to vent out all the negative emotions he had accumulated before!
In the eyes of the outside world, he is old and can't run anymore. It's time to abdicate and retire.But what's the difference between killing an eagle and preventing it from flying?
Now, he can say what he wants to say.
I am not old!I can still score goals!
Shevchenko is not a player who likes to show his personality, but in a special background and environment, the Ukrainian striker also showed such a domineering side.
His teammates didn't rush up, but surrounded him, letting Shevchenko enjoy this feeling!
He has been under pressure for too long and really needs to explode!
Martin Petrov had an idea, he ran up and knelt down on one knee, let Shevchenko step on one foot, and made a "shoe shine" gesture.
This kind of "shoe shine" celebration, but only Ronaldo has enjoyed it...
After shining shoes, Shevchenko smiled and hugged Martin Petrov.
"Thanks, buddy!"
After a few minutes of rioting, Fulham kicked off and the game restarted!
Coleman frowned tightly. He paced back and forth on the sidelines, his messy hair flying in the wind.As a head coach who relies on "habits" and likes "experience", he hates all things that "do not conform to habits".
Shevchenko's goal did not enter his intended trajectory.
But fortunately, before the game, he had deployed Shevchenko on this point and conducted special research.
The same thing will never happen again!
Fulham made their first substitution after the restart and they brought in a defensive midfielder named Brad.In the subsequent game, Shevchenko discovered that this player named Brad became his "follower".
Off the field, Coleman looked smug.
This Brad is exactly what he prepared for Shevchenko.This player's other abilities are not good, but his attention is very concentrated. If he is asked to mark a person, he will rarely lose track.
Such a player is exactly the artifact that Coleman uses to limit Shevchenko.
In the previous week, Coleman assigned Brad the task of studying Shevchenko.Based on a large number of game videos, Brad practiced defense hard this week, and it was dedicated to Shevchenko's defense.
Brad knows himself better than Shevchenko does.
Brad has a clear understanding of Shevchenko's small movements, habits, and weaknesses.Even with his eyes closed, Brad could clearly know what Shevchenko would do.
With such a trump card, Coleman will be confident in restraining Shevchenko.
Brad himself, too.
After the opening, Shevchenko found that the new player sent by the opponent seemed to be marking him closely.
And it seems that this close-to-mark player is very familiar with himself.
Shevchenko drops back to get the ball, and the player follows him everywhere.
Shevchenko raised his foot, ready to take the ball, and he habitually protected the ball on the inside of the arch of his left foot.However, at this time, Brad shot out with lightning, passed between Shevchenko's legs, and just stabbed the football under Shevchenko's feet.
The ball was passed to the Fulham midfielders, and Fulham, taking advantage of Manchester City's pressure, played a very effective counter-attack.
The football was eventually saved by Joe Hart flying out of the field.
There was an exclamation at the scene.
Two minutes later, Brad appeared on camera for the second time.This time, he is no longer close-to-mark, but defends Shevchenko face-to-face.
Faced with Shevchenko's false moves, Brad did not hesitate, and decisively shot, which happened to destroy the ball.
This time Fulham's counterattack was strangled by Trabelsi on the right.
There was a burst of amazement at the scene, they did not expect Fulham to be so well prepared, and what they did to Manchester City was extremely tactical.
