I am Vardy

Chapter 26 Substitute

The strength of Manchester United is indeed much stronger than that of Everton in front of them. Coupled with the advantage of the home court, not to mention that Moyes has developed a defensive counterattack tactic, even if Moyes wants the team to fight against Manchester United, it is estimated that he will have to be defeated. Manchester United called back.

Although Keane is not on the field, Manchester United will attack more through the two wings. Both Ronaldo and Saha have very strong offensive capabilities. Coupled with Scholes' scheduling in the middle, Everton's midfielder still has no way to parry.

However, Everton started with defense, so naturally they are not so unrestrained. Although Manchester United attack fiercely, under Everton's defensive posture, even if they have the upper hand, there is no way to create a real threat.

In the first 20 minutes, Manchester United's most threatening attack was Scholes' long-range shot near the front of the penalty area, but it missed slightly.

Everton's tenacity was completely beyond Ferguson's expectations. His Scottish fellow Moyes did a good job last season and led Everton to successfully avoid relegation. At that time, Moyes had already entered Ferguson's sight.

And Everton's performance today surprised Ferguson even more. Even though Manchester United is not the strongest Manchester United today, at Old Trafford, there are not many teams that can withstand such a fierce offensive from Manchester United, especially Everton. Dayton is still a relegation team, which is even more rare.

Of course, Ferguson will not be too worried. Everton doesn't even have the ability to counterattack. It is difficult to defend just by defending.

Vardy sat on the bench, watching his teammates defending hard, wishing he could also rush to the court and fight with his teammates. Sitting on the bench was really tormented.

"Young man, be patient, don't worry, isn't it normal to face Manchester United's defense?"

Perhaps seeing Vardy's fidgeting posture, the substitute goalkeeper Wright said to Vardy in a tone of someone who has experienced it.

Vardy nodded silently. He knew the helplessness of a defensive counterattack team. He was always beaten by his opponents in the backcourt on the court. It takes patience to persevere. Persevere, you will have a chance to see the light.

Didn't Everton reach the Champions League by relying on defensive counterattacks!

Didn't the later myth of Leicester City rely on defensive counterattacks to win the Premier League championship!

The first half is over. Although Manchester United are on the offensive, they still cannot break through Everton's goal. The Red Devils fans in the stands are very excited. In their view, Manchester United has a clear advantage. The goal will come sooner or later. Everton He could only tremble under the prestige of Manchester United, and then left Old Trafford sadly with the result of failure.

Vardy did not enter the locker room. When the main players returned to the locker room to listen to Moyes' tactical arrangements, he and several other substitute players had to warm up around the court to be ready to come off the bench at any time.

He was a little absent-minded during the warm-up. Although he successfully entered the squad, he didn't know if he would have a chance to play in this game, which was really tormenting.

If Moyes only wants to draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford, then his chances of playing are slim. His defensive ability is limited and he has not fully integrated into the team's tactical system. Unless Moyes is crazy, he will not let himself play. .

Even if some players are in poor physical condition, the midfielders and defenders on the bench will play, and the most I can do is hand them a towel.

Thinking of this, Vardy couldn't help feeling depressed.

After the start of the second half, Everton still looked resigned, with all members shrunk to defend in the midfield, while Manchester United made targeted adjustments. Alan Smith had a wider range of activities, involving Everton's strength. Create more space for Ronaldo and Saha.

A wave of Manchester United's offensive hit Everton's defense almost collapsed, and the continuous shots made the noise in front of the goal even more. In the end, Ronaldo's shot from outside the small penalty area hit the plane high in excitement, which shocked everyone cold sweat.

Ronaldo, who wasted a good chance to score, held his head regretfully, and grinned to vent his depression. If Manchester United fails to win this game, then Ronaldo, who wasted the opportunity, will definitely become the target of media criticism after the game.

Even Ferguson was furious on the sidelines, wasting such a good opportunity, he felt that Ronaldo was dead!

Looking back, we must let him practice shooting more every day!

As the game time was consumed a little bit, the expression on Ferguson's face became cold and serious. Everton's defense made him feel like he couldn't get in. If there is no way to win this game, then Manchester United may really It's going to be quiet for a long time.

And Moyes, standing in front of the visiting team's bench, showed an intriguing expression on his face, never underestimate an ambitious man.

It seems that Everton did not have any aggressiveness in this game, and they played with the mentality that a draw means victory, but are you really sure that Moyes has no idea of ​​​​winning?

When the game progressed to 65 minutes, Moyes walked back to the bench from the sidelines and let several substitute players start warming up. This is the adjustment signal he released.

Unlike several teammates with serious expressions and excitement, Vardy didn't have so many thoughts. Everton's defense is so tight now, how could Moyes change into an offensive player, so all five substitutes were asked to get up and warm up. It was basically Moyes' smoke bomb, and it was either the central defender Yabo or the midfielder Watson who was finally replaced.

"We saw Everton's substitute players warming up. I think Moyes is going to make adjustments. Which player will he replace to strengthen the defense?"

Obviously, the commentators also agree with Vardy's views.

But something unexpected happened. After the assistant coach called back the players who were warming up, he called Vardy to his side alone and gave him instructions.

"Stay near the midfield after playing for a while, and force Kleberson as much as possible when defending. If there is a chance to counterattack, you must give full play to your advantages. This is our last chance!"

Vardy still couldn't believe it. He didn't hear what the assistant coach said clearly, but he still nodded subconsciously. Even if he was ignorant, he knew he was going to play.

At this time, there was no time to think about why Moyes had to replace himself. Taking advantage of the dead ball, the fourth official had already raised a sign to indicate the substitution.

Vardy was replaced by striker McFadden. Because of his height advantage, Ferguson has been helping to defend high-altitude balls in his penalty area. It seems that the only one who has no obvious effect on the field is McFadden.

When he walked off the field, the young striker looked very depressed. He had no room to play in this game, as if he was sleepwalking on the field. Being replaced now probably means that he has no chance.

After a reluctant clap with Vardy, McFadden walked off the pitch as Vardy stepped onto the pitch for the first time.

Come on, this is the stage I've been looking forward to!

Let the whole world watch my performance!

At this moment, Vardy opened his hands, as if he could embrace the whole world!
