Chapter 203 1 to 1

beep!

With the whistle of the referee Martin Atkinson, Carvajal tackled a foul when he faced Nani's one-on-one defense on the right, and the whole Wembley Stadium was fried again.

"After the start of the second half, Southampton played significantly more aggressively. In some indisputable opportunities, they were obviously more proactive and more desperate!"

After seeing the referee blow the whistle, the TV commentator commented and analyzed the trend in the second half.

Martin Atkinson called Carvajal over.

"It's about to draw a card!"

There was an uproar in the stands, with cheers and boos.

Obviously, the fans of Manchester United feel that this card is well given, but the fans of Southampton feel that this action will not take the card.

"The referee is a warning to the Southampton players. Carvajal's performance is still very good, and his defense against Nani is in place. The Portuguese winger has hardly made a breakthrough from his side."

Sure enough, Atkinson raised a yellow card high towards Carvajal.

"In the 53rd minute of the second half, Southampton were one goal behind and also got their fourth yellow card of the game, the third one for the Saints, and the other for Manchester United's Carrick. ."

"Now Carvajal has to be careful. Manchester United is obviously targeting the left. He has a yellow card and has to take some action."

The TV commentator's words only appeared in the live TV broadcast, but at the scene, everyone could only hear the voices from the fans.

In the royal box, Abramovich immediately laughed when he saw Atkinson draw his cards.

"Unfortunately, it's just a yellow card. According to me, it should be a red card!"

Continuing to follow the way the two teams played in the second half, Southampton couldn't see any hope at all.

At best, it can only be said that Southampton fought more fiercely and robbed more ruthlessly.

But the question is, this can only be playing a war of attrition, what effect can it achieve?

Yang Huan couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he saw it. He didn't want to see Abramovich's triumphant gesture after winning.

Just at this time, the Spanish midfielder Isco came out and ran quickly to warm up on the bench of Southampton, which caught the attention of Yang Huan in the stands.

Is this going to be a substitute? Or just a normal warm-up?

Generally, players on the bench will take the initiative to run to warm up every once in a while to ensure that their bodies can adapt to the rhythm on the court as soon as possible.

"It's almost time!" Wilkinson said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Prince William asked, turning his head.

The game has been going on so far, and everyone in the royal box has been attracted.

The most important thing is because of this big gamble between Yang Huan and Abramovich.

Eight-figure pound gamble, it's no joke.

"The combination of Scholes and Carrick can't play the war of attrition, and they are not enough in the area coverage. Bielsa further strengthened the pressing and pressing in the second half, and played the war of attrition. The purpose is to make substitutions."

Such an explanation is not without reason.

After all, even if there are substitutions now, there are still more than 30 minutes in the game, and there is still a lot of time left for Southampton.

As long as one goal was scored, the game went into extra time. Southampton's players were younger and had a certain physical advantage.

"Who do you think will be replaced?" Prince William asked.

"Vidal!" Although Wilkinson was guessing, he was very confident.

Use Isco to replace Vidal, let Isco and Adam Lallana, two skilled players partner, plus Strowman behind him, resolutely continue to strengthen the offensive and threatening ball ability.

To some extent, Isco's presence can relieve the pressure on Adam Lallana.

Yang Huan shook his head, "I don't think so."

"Why?" It was Wilkinson who asked instead.

Yang Huan smiled and said, "I don't know, it's a feeling."

At this moment, Isco, who was warming up on the sidelines, immediately returned to the coach Bielsa after running a lap.

Bielsa, who was squatting on the ground, stood up, pointed to the court, and instructed Isco.

Soon, the fourth official on the sidelines raised the number plate.

Isco replaced the field captain Adam Lallana!

"Adam Lallana?" Wilkinson was obviously confused by the substitution.

Adam Lallana is very threatening to take the ball and play the ball at the front of the penalty area, why did he replace it?

And his performance in this game is not bad, at least a little better than Vidal.

However, as soon as the captain of the Saints saw the number plate, he immediately walked to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. After handing the captain's armband to him, he said again, asking him to lead his teammates to cheer, and then ran to the sidelines to talk to Iss. Section hugged, out of the field.

After Isco played, he did not move forward and appeared in Adam Lallana's attacking midfield position, but walked towards the midfield, came to Vidal, and said something to the Chilean midfielder.

In the end, it turned out that Vidal moved forward and appeared further forward in the midfield, near the front midfielder.

Let Isco, who is better in technique, dribbling and passing ability, drag back, but instead push Vidal forward?

"I don't understand, I really don't understand!" Wilkinson couldn't help shaking his head.

Bielsa's move is a risky move, especially the trust in Vidal, who had a poor performance in this game.

The bet won, and everyone said he was a coup.

But if the bet is lost, everyone will say that he is a crony.

"Does he intend to use Vidal to further consume Scholes and Carrick? Like Rooney's harassment of Strowman in the first half?" Wilkinson frowned and speculated.

However, the usefulness of Vidal has not yet been reflected, and Isco, who came on as a substitute, won a chance to show his face.

"The counterattack after Southampton steals the ball, Strowman passes it to Chamberlain."

"Chamberlain pulled into the middle to catch the ball and wanted to break through, but Scholes got stuck."

Seeing that he couldn't pass the ball and break through, Chamberlain immediately turned around, turned his back on Scholes, and protected the ball.

Seeing that Isco quickly plugged into the right flank from behind, Chamberlain immediately passed the ball over.

"Isco, facing Evra, with Nani behind him, make a pick..."

"...Good shot! Pick again! Picked Evra..."

In the pincer attack of the two players, after Isco picked Evra, he immediately turned around and blocked Evra behind him.

"As soon as the chest stopped, it was beautiful, and then I picked it up... I picked it up behind Evra..."

"It's over, it's wonderful, Isco!"

As soon as the diminutive Isco saw that the ball had passed Evra, he turned around and quickly chased after him.

Evra also wanted to turn around, but it was a beat too late.

Isco got the ball before everyone else, go!

"It's past, it's past!"

The whole picture is aimed at Isco!

No one would have thought that although the teenager was in the back, he suddenly pushed forward, and he was so resolute and decisive.

More importantly, he just made a breakthrough in the extremely narrow range on the wing, facing two players double-teamed.

What will he do next?

Countless fans looked at him nervously, and even many fans in the stands were so excited that they could not help standing up.

"...passing..."

The ball crossed an arc and fell into the penalty area.

Vidal rushed up from outside the penalty area and jumped high against the ball.

But the tall Vidic suddenly appeared, grabbed ahead of him, and headed the pass out of the big penalty area.

There was a whirring sound throughout Wembley Stadium, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

There are also regrets from Southampton fans.

Who would have thought that the Spanish teenager would be a threat when he first touched the ball?

"Isco, this player has a fine footing but is a little sticky on the ball."

Wilkinson felt that Isco was the kind of player who was very eye-catching.

But if the ball just now was passed a little earlier and pressed lower and faster, the ball would basically be there!

"By arranging Vidal at the front of the penalty area, it seems that he also needs to use his ability to score from the back."

While the threat from the first touch failed to score, Isco was increasingly active.

After more than a minute, he got another chance to get the ball in the middle circle.

Vidal dropped the defense, stole the ball and passed it to Strowman, who touched the ball to Isco.

Isco stopped the ball, turned around, and started in one go.

After moving forward for a while, suddenly a through ball with right foot.

The ball passed between Vidic and Evra.

The right winger Chamberlain started quickly, drummed up his fastest speed, and plunged straight behind Evra.

In the middle, Ibrahimovic also rushed forward quickly, ready to meet Chamberlain.

Evra and Chamberlain were fighting for speed on the flanks, but as soon as they started, Chamberlain's speed was beyond Evra's expectations.

The English teenager has Jamaican ancestry in the end. When he sprints, the speed is unstoppable.

Evra didn't even have time to foul.

Just watched Chamberlain rush forward quickly, stopped the ball on the right side of the big penalty area, and quickly adjusted.

At this time, Ibrahimovic has rushed into the penalty area.

There was only a fraction of a second for Chamberlain to react.

The English teenager raised his head. In the penalty area, Ibrahimovic was attacked by Vidic and Ferdinand.

Now it's hard to get a chance.

Chamberlain chose to bring his own!

The English teenager was bold enough and fierce enough to dribble the ball directly into the penalty area.

Scholes and Evra both retreated, and the two had a tacit understanding of wanting to clamp Chamberlain one after the other.

To pass!

To pass!

If you don't spread it, it will be gone!

Everyone at the scene had such a thought.

Chamberlain also knew that it was going to be passed on, but the question was, to whom?

Just when he was at a loss, a red figure swept out of the corner of his left eye, and then a voice came, "Give it to me!"

Who is this person?

He doesn't know.

The only thing that is certain is that this voice is quite familiar, it is my own.

So, he passed it!

Just as Scholes and Evra were about to double-team, Chamberlain passed the ball away from Scholes.

After passing it, he raised his head and looked forward.

"Vidal!!!!!!"

Vidal, who had just completed a steal in the backcourt just now, had already rushed into Manchester United's penalty area!

Just saw Vidal rushing up, facing Chamberlain's pass, every step, he stepped very steadily and very heavily.

Because each step will be related to the chain of actions he follows immediately.

As soon as the left foot stops against the incoming ball from the right, the ball bounces to the right.

Vidal quickly changed his center of gravity, steadied his left foot, and lifted his right foot.

At this time, the ball is just within the volley of his right foot.

Without the slightest hesitation, he faced the ball with a strong volley with his right foot!

The ball was like a cannonball, passing over Vidic's long right leg.

Goalkeeper Van der Sar flew to save, trying to dial the ball out.

But the ball went from between his outstretched arm and the goal post at a very fast speed, got into the goal line, and hit the net.

Vidal was stunned!

Southampton players are also stunned!

Everyone at the scene was stunned!

This ball, is it going in like this?

Yes, the ball, that's it!

Referee Martin Atkinson's effective whistle for a goal caused a frenzy of cheers in the deadly silent Wembley Stadium.

All the Southampton fans reacted at this time and shouted hoarsely.

All the Southampton players rushed up, hugged Vidal and surrounded him in the middle.

One to one, Southampton tied the score! ()
