Everyone thought that Van Kerry would use his left foot to pass the ball, but he unexpectedly used the outside of his left foot to shoot from the left side of the small penalty area. The ball speed was not fast, but it had a surprisingly winning effect. In addition, the shooting distance was relatively close, and goalkeeper Onana Neither De Ligt nor De Ligt could react.

"aoaooaooaooooooooo——"

The football hit the snow-white net, and the Manchester United fans in the Friendship Arena went completely crazy, creating a fanatical atmosphere like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

They all know what this goal means... expand the score and seal the victory!

Van Kerry, who scored, still did not celebrate the goal. He raised his arms and apologized.

Other Manchester United players did not have this psychological baggage, including Blind and Fosu-Mensah who came from the Ajax youth training. They all celebrated the team's expansion of the score with joy.

Captain Rooney, who was sitting on the bench, was particularly excited and shouted loudly, even though he did not contribute a single contribution to the team in this game.

Head coach Mourinho half-knelt in the visiting team's coaching area and shouted to the sky, venting the huge pressure caused by the two-goal lead.

In stark contrast, Ajax head coach Bosz shook his head and sighed, feeling sad.

Standing next to the fourth official, Van der Beek didn't know whether he should play or not. He returned to the home team coach's command area and asked Xiang Bosz:"Boss, can I still play?"

"Come on! Replaced with Lasse Schone"

"OK!"

The on-site director restored the entire process of Van Kerry's goal, starting from accelerating to chase Valencia's outrageous cross, to turning around and passing Weltman and Davinson Sanchez.

The final shot was decisive enough and exceeded everyone's expectations.

BBC commentator Lineker said emotionally:"This is the difference between ordinary players and stars! Kerry's never-giving spirit turns opportunities that are not opportunities into goals! Manchester United leads Ajax 2:0, the game With less than thirty minutes left, Ajax must strengthen its attack, otherwise it will have to accept defeat."

Jorge Mendes, who was sitting in the VIP seat, smiled very happily. The better Van Kerry performed on the court, the commercial The income will be higher, and as an agent, he will also make a lot of money.

Before the game restarted, Ajax made personnel adjustments, and Van der Beek replaced veteran Schone.

As Van Kerry walked back, he took the initiative to shake hands with Van de Beek and said with a smile:"Come on!"

Van de Beek, who came on as a substitute, was very effective. His one-touch ball and clear passing route simplified Ajax's complex situation. offensive routine.

Two minutes later, Mourinho also made personnel adjustments, and Mkhitaryan replaced Martial, who was in good and bad form.

The idea of ​​​​this adjustment is clear. Mkhitaryan, who is strong in defense, has not only increased his defensive ability on the right, but also can maintain defensive pressure on Ajax in frontcourt offense.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Van de Beek's performance was indeed outstanding. Mkhitaryan, who came on as a substitute, made up for Manchester United's defensive deficiencies in the midfield, which was equivalent to offsetting the role of the active Van de Beek. After all, it is difficult for Van de Beek to rely on individuals to revitalize Ajax. attack

※※※

In the 67th minute of the game, Ajax made their second adjustment. Brazilian player Neres replaced Dolberg to increase frontcourt activity and maintain pressure on Manchester United from defense to offense.

Not long after, Manchester United also made substitution adjustments, with captain Rooney replacing Mata.

Mourinho's substitution immediately attracted the attention of the commentator in the commentary box. BBC commentator Lineker changed his voice:"According to multiple media reports, Wayne Rooney is likely to leave this summer after 13 years. After a long absence from Manchester United, he returned to his old club Everton. He had won countless trophies and honors with Manchester United. Only the Europa League championship trophy was left. He came on as a substitute. It was Jose Mourinho who hoped that he would be perfect. career……"

Rooney stepped onto the court and unleashed the tactics taught by head coach Mourinho to his teammates.

"papapaaaaaaa——"

The Manchester United fans in the audience gave thunderous applause.

Valencia took the initiative and returned the captain's armband to Rooney.

Rooney, who came to the attacking midfielder position, played smarter and more skillfully than Mata. His experience and ability were immediately reflected after his appearance.

Rooney received the pass in the center circle and passed the ball directly to the left rib of the penalty area. Van Carey, who succeeded in countering offside, naturally opened his arms, pushed his chest outward, stopped the football to the right front of his body, and bypassed Davinson who was stuck in front of him. ·Sanchez defended and connected very quickly. He quickly hit the football with the instep of his right foot down to the height of his calf.

Goalkeeper Onana made a great contribution this time. He blocked Van Kerry's volley with a subconscious sideways block. De Ligt reacted very quickly and kicked the ball out of the defensive left sideline with his left foot.

Onana stood up and raised his arms and shouted, as if he had scored a goal.

Van Carey, who was not able to wear a hat, held his head in regret, and then gave captain Rooney a high thumbs up to express that he passed the ball beautifully.

Mourinho felt regretful but also applauded Van Carey for completing the wonderful shot. The on-site director gave a slow-motion replay. The fans sitting in front of the TV once again recalled Van Carey's divine stoppage and amazing balance ability.

Under normal circumstances, when the forward receives a long pass from the side, he stops forward. Van Carey is exactly the opposite. He stops sideways to the right, which causes Davinson Sanchez to make another defensive mistake and find a good shooting opportunity.

It's a pity that the final shot angle was not tricky enough, otherwise Manchester United would have sealed the victory.

When the time came to the 75th minute, Ajax played the last card. Frenkie de Jong replaced Ledwald, who was carrying a yellow card, and the formation changed from 433 to 343, with a midfield diamond position.

The defensive attributes are weak. Frenkie de Jong, who has strong final passing ability, plays the attacking midfielder. Van de Beek, who has good defensive attributes, serves as the organizing midfielder. Ziyech and Klassen are on the left and right.

Bosz hopes to attack Manchester United and reverse the unfavorable situation.

It's a good idea, but it's very difficult to implement.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Frenkie de Jong came on the field, Manchester United scored.

Herrera made accurate predictions, moved in advance, intercepted Frenkie de Jong's pass to Bertrand Traore, and then quickly passed it to Rooney who had space to receive the ball.

Van Carey's crazy movement took away the attention of Weltman and Davinson Sanchez. Rooney made a long pass in the opposite direction of Van Carey, that is, Rashford was advancing at high speed along the right.

De Ligt did not dare to attack easily and retreated while fighting. Rashford, who received the ball, took advantage of De Ligt's fear of approaching and passed the ball from the right wing about 40 meters away from the baseline.

To be more precise, it was the space behind the defense of Davinson Sanchez and De Ligt.

Van Carey has plenty of physical energy and excellent acceleration. He is more than one level better than Weltman and Davinson Sanchez, who are severely exhausted.

I saw him passing the front right side of Davinson Sanchez at a speed visible to the naked eye, leading the ball to the front right with the outside instep of his right foot, and heading towards the penalty area without losing speed.

"aoaoaooaooaooooooooo——"

Accompanied by the huge shouts above the Friendship Arena, Van Carey cut the ball into the right side of the penalty area and raised his right foot.

Davinson Sanchez had no choice. He took advantage of the huge inertia brought by the high-speed return to defense and stretched his right foot forward to expand the blocking area.

Fan Kerry quickly lowered his exaggerated right foot, and dunked the football to the left with the inside of his instep. His right foot landed on the ground to support him. Davinson Sanchez's body just slipped in front of him, and his left foot was naturally raised. The bow is pushed hard towards the football.

The football rolled quickly to the lower left corner of the goal. Goalkeeper Onana had earlier moved to the near corner in advance. Facing the shot from the far corner, he was helpless this time...

Lex Sports commentator Zhan Jun shouted hysterically. :"The ball is scored! Van Kerry scored his third goal of the game! The first player in the Europa League final! Manchester United leads Ajax 3:0,"
