Chapter 0240 little horse brother

On April 9, Sunderland, northeastern England city, the Stadium of Light.

There were crowds of people in the stadium.

The game has been going on for 65 minutes, and the score on the field is still one to one.

In the first half, Harry Kane scored a long shot and scored Manchester United first. However, before the end of the first half, Sunderland scored a goal with his opponent to tie the score.

After the intermission, the two sides were still fighting hard.

This season, Sunderland's performance is very bad, and he has been at the bottom of the Premier League standings for a long time. He has been in a stable position as the deputy squad leader and has always been a favorite for relegation in the Premier League.

In the 31 rounds of the Premier League that have been held, Sunderland only scored 5 wins, 5 draws and 20 losses with one round less. The 20 league points were 3 points less than the second-last Middlesbrough, and 10 points less than the fourth-last Hull City. Although the hope of relegation is slim, it is not yet desperate with 8 league games to play.

This traditional English powerhouse, which once won six championships in the old English League One era, has been fighting for the Premier League relegation since returning to the Premier League in 2007.

But this magical team, just like its nickname Black Cat, is like having nine lives. In the past nine seasons, it has been able to relegate in various ways.

Compared with other Premier League relegation teams, Sunderland can say one thing: In the Premier League, I am professional!

Especially Manchester United took a full rotation today because they were going to play in the Champions League in the middle of next week, which gave Sunderland hope to score points at home.

So, Sunderland, who was at home today, played very proactively and amid the cheers of the whole audience, and finally showed people how powerful the Premier League relegation team is.

……………………

At this moment, Anthony Martial, wearing the No. 20 jersey, was standing on the sidelines, waiting for the chance to die.

Ye Su decided to send Martial to replace Lingard. Because of Manchester United's rotation, Lingard got the starting opportunity in this game and appeared on the right side, but his performance was very average.

After this substitution adjustment, Martial will form a trident with Harry Kane and Rashford to attack Sunderland's defense.

Ye Su stood beside Martial, holding a hand around the French boy, and was giving him his last advice before he took the field.

"After you get on the field, you go to the left and let Marcus switch to the right. Their right back Billy Jones is older and has been tortured by Marcus for about an hour before, and a physical crisis will soon occur. Moreover, this old guy has a shortcoming speed." Ye Su said, "Do you know what to do?"

"Use my speed to assault him," Martial said.

"The answer is right." Ye Su continued, "Your mission has not been through him. I will arrange for Harry Kane to do the ball for you. Your mission is to hit him behind him with speed! Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Martial nodded. He knew his abilities and characteristics. Outstanding people was indeed his strength, but for an old man in his thirty years old, the other party's experience can greatly make up for the gap in ability. The possibility of him passing by is not too great.

Relatively speaking, leveraging the absolute speed advantage is a more confident approach.

"Bruno and the others will also try to pass the ball behind him more." Ye Su said, "Your task is to run, run, use your speed, get the ball, break into the penalty area, and then..."

Ye Su clenched his left fist and smashed it into the palm of his right hand hard. Then he stared at Martial and said, "Kick me that damn ball!"

Martial didn't say anything, just nodded vigorously.

He was a little nervous, but he was also very excited and looking forward to it. The team couldn't start the situation now, and the coach sent him at this time, which was trust in him.

When the team needs goals the most, the substitute comes on the bench, turns the tide and becomes a hero. This scene has been the dreams of countless young players that appear countless times.

Now, he longs for his dream to come true!

……………………

A dead ball finally appeared on the court.

Manchester United immediately completed the substitution.

"Manchester United first made substitution adjustments. 21-year-old French young player Anthony Martial came on as a substitute. He replaced the young Lingard. The latter's performance today obviously could not satisfy Coach Ye Su." Commentator John Motterson said, "Removing a winger and adding a scorer. It is obvious that Coach Ye Su is not satisfied with taking a point from Sunderland, but his substitution is worth discussing. As the winner of the European Golden Boy Award two years ago, Martial's performance this season is difficult to satisfy. Although there are many opportunities to play, with a total of 24 starts and substitutes in various competitions, he only scored 4 goals and 6 assists. He is the worst performer among Manchester United's forward players and his efficiency is far lower than his forward competitors."

"Martial has suffered a lot of criticism and doubts before." Even the commentator of Manchester United's official TV station MUTV said, "I don't think it's a good idea to send Martial at a critical moment when goals need to be scored. Maybe it's better to give this French boy a chance to feel when he leads the big score, and without pressure."

Martial quickly ran into the court. He first found his forward partner Harry Kane and said something, but the latter obviously did not understand. At this time, Ye Su called Rashford over on the sidelines and said a few words. Then, Rashford ran back to the court and found Bruno Fernandez and Harry Kane to convey the coach's latest instructions.

"These kids should urge him to learn English as soon as possible." Ye Su said on the sidelines.

It has been almost two years since Martial came to the UK, but this guy's English is still very bad, and few people in the team can understand his English.

……………………

This time the chance to die was that Sunderland won the sideline ball in the frontcourt.

Sunderland left-back Costanicans Brian Oviedo threw the ball to his teammates, Swedish midfielder Sebastian Larson.

Larson stretched out his feet to stop the ball, then turned around with a beautiful ball, and poked it with his toes, twisted his waist and passed Valencia.

"Walker is playing too hard!" Carrick said worriedly and anxiously from the sidelines.

Ye Su didn't say anything. Valencia was a forward-looking person and was later transformed into a defender by the old sir. This one-on-one defense was not Valencia's strength. He was good at speed and breakthroughs, and some of them were strong in offense and weak in defense.

Fortunately, Manchester United lined up two midfielders in this game. Although Kanter, Manchester United's safest iron gate, took a rest because of the mid-week Champions League, the defense of Fellaini and Phil Jones is still reliable.

Especially Phil Jones, the flying general who can maintain health is still very strong.

Larson had just passed the football to Jack Rodwell, the front midfielder who came to pick up. After getting the ball in the former Manchester City midfielder, he just turned around and saw Phil Jones's aggressive and looking very ferocious and terrifying face, and was shocked.

The flying general rushed over directly, and at the same time he stabbed the ball decisively, and then he seemed to be unable to close his power, and directly staggered Rodwell, which made Rodwell no longer have the opportunity to turn around and fight back on the spot.

Ye Su nodded: Although Phil Jones has a more serious glass attribute, he is an old minister in the Ferguson era. After several years of training by the old Lord, his competition experience is still good!

This is also the reason why Ye Su has never cleaned up this glass man. On the one hand, there are not many old ministers in Manchester United during his time, and on the other hand, the healthy Phil Jones is also a rare powerful general.

……………………

Fellaini got the ball before the others, and he passed it directly to Valencia who was running up.

Valencia, who had just passed by Larson, showed his talent on the offensive end. He looked up at the front and passed the ball with a long diagonal line, passing the ball out, and then spread it out.

"Counterattack! This is Manchester United's counterattack opportunity!"

This ball was directly asked for Harry Kane.

Sunderland's central defender Lamin Cone was competing with Harry Kane, but the 28-year-old Sunderland central defender immediately realized that he was not the opponent of the English boy. Harry Kane made a prediction about the landing point of the football and successfully took off the ball before the defender. He showed everyone his amazing jumping power, which was half a head higher than the underprepared Cone.

Harry Kane is heading the ball!

Bruno Fernandez rushed up. Instead of stopping the ball, he swept the ball directly and swept the ball to the frontcourt!

Then people saw a blue figure flashing by, which was Martial's rapid forward.

Sunderland's other central defender, Jason Denayer, hurriedly turned around to chase the football. He was closer to the football than Martial. He thought he could get the ball first, but the next second, Denayer was shocked. The boy who was several meters behind him had already caught up. He could even smell the heavy breathing smell of Martial behind him.

Denayer was shocked. He fell to the ground without any hesitation and slipped the shovel directly!

"Martial! So fast, Denayer! Tackle! He tackled the football towards his goalkeeper!" John Motterson shouted, "Although Denayer is young, he has done the right way to deal with the ball at this moment. He knows that he is going to be caught up - Oh my God! The Frenchman! His speed! He can actually be faster!"

Just when everyone thought that Manchester United's attack would end here and the football would eventually be cleared by Sunderland's goalkeeper Pickford, he saw the blue figure still accelerating. He passed by De Nayere, who had completed the pass, without stopping at all. Instead, the speed became faster and faster, and continued to move forward like a sprint.
