The Carabao Cup is the main battlefield for Manchester United's young players.

Wang Zheng has already said that if they do not win the game against Southampton, their chances of playing this year will be halved.

Playing opportunities are the life of a player, and without playing opportunities, players cannot improve. The young backline, in particular, has been prepared for a long time.

Jackson, Axel Tuanzebe, Blackett and Varela volunteered to stay and practice to enhance their sense of understanding.

There are two veterans in the midfield, Fletcher and Carrick, Wang Zheng is more assured, and the back line will not have too much pressure. As long as you don't make mistakes, winning is not a problem.

Southampton fielded almost an all-out main line-up.

Zhan Yingjun saw the starting lineups of both sides, and secretly pinched a sweat for Manchester United, "Manchester United has a big rotation of the lineup, all of them are substitutes, and Anthony Martial played again after the weekend league. ”

'Southampton, on the other hand, they almost fielded the strongest squad and most of the players were players from the last game.

'It looks like Southampton are going to win this game and put Manchester United's Carabao Cup journey to a halt.'

Also following the game was the scramble video, and countless fans began to tune in to watch the game.

When they saw the starting lineups of both sides, they also gasped, "Wang Zheng is doing this, how can he win the game?" ”

"The backline is full of young players, is Wang Zheng stupid?"

"Wang Zheng is too big, Southampton is a giant killer. Just won the last game against Manchester United. ”

"How can a Manchester United squad win a game, a squad that is completely in the Championship?"

The Southampton players were in a good mood to see the Manchester United players on the pitch, and it looked like Manchester United were here to lose, which was great.

The game begins.

Manchester United kicked off first, and sure enough, they were heavily defended by Southampton, and it was difficult to play a threatening attack.

Southampton, for their part, have been pushing hard, but the midfield is firmly controlled by Carrick and Fletcher, and they have struggled to break through.

The two sides were grinding like this, and the game was very ugly.

Wang Zheng squinted his eyes and thought to himself, "The game is really ugly. Hard work fans. ”

The teenager Pereira has a lot of speed, but he can't play a match, and the impact and the last shot are not enough, and it is difficult to open the situation.

Anthony Martial was heavily targeted, and as long as he got the ball, he was surrounded by at least two people, and it was difficult to even get the ball out.

'Anthony Martial was a big hitch for Manchester United, but obviously they were heavily guarded and it was difficult for them to open up the situation. Zhan Yingjun analyzed, "In this game, whoever scores first may win the game." ”

The first half was very ugly, and it was grinding and grinding.

The score between the two sides is still 0:0.

'After a dull first half, we'll see what kind of adjustments the coaches will make.

'Manchester United don't have European commitments this year, the Carabao Cup starts early. Until now, it has been young people who have taken the lead, and we have reason to believe that Wang Zheng. ”

"It would be a huge achievement for them to win the Carabao Cup with young players. And this group of young players could make it to the first team or take a starting place with other Premier League teams. ”

At the start of the second half, United made the first substitution.

Fusu Mensah replaces Varela at right-back.

Ashley Young replaces Andreas Pereira as a left winger.

Anthony Martial, who was originally playing on the left, went from the wing to the middle and stood in the centre.

The substitution really had an immediate effect.

Fusu Mensah dribbled the ball, broke through on the wing, and passed to Shinji Kagawa, who ran and passed back to Mensah again.

Mensah glanced at the ball and passed the ball very closely, very hidden.

Anthony Martial burst in small steps, received the ball, shot at goal, all in one go.

'The Zei ball is there, Anthony Martial. Break the ice. ”

Manchester United lead Southampton 1-0.

Southampton, on their side, immediately organized an attack and besieged Jackson on the left, and Ashley Young hurried back to help the young Jackson.

When the game reached 60 minutes, Wang Zheng's gesture changed.

Ashley Young switched positions with Jackson at left wing-back.

Jackson up front, left winger?

No, he was barely involved in the offense, just defending, starting from the front court and going to the back court to combine with Ashley Young to stifle it.

Southampton didn't expect Wang Zheng's tactics to be so weird, letting the defenders play wingers, and the wingers went back to play the defenders' positions.

One wing is full of defenders, so they can only shift the battlefield and focus on the right side.

However, on the right, Carrick and Shinji Kagawa and Mensah were fluent on the ball, and they did not find a better chance.

The clock was ticking by, and it was soon 90 minutes.

Mane burst through and rushed past Fletcher's defence, Blackett was also shaken, and Tuanzebe was nervous, his foot stretched out, tripping Mane.

Beep!

The referee's whistle blows.

Fall to the ground in the box, penalty.

John Stone has to face a penalty. The whole person is almost unbearable.

He was nervous throughout the game and didn't make a mistake, but at the last moment, he had to face a penalty.

Wang Zheng hurriedly beckoned.

Taking advantage of the referee's inattention, John Stone walked to the sidelines to drink water.

Wang patted him on the shoulder, "Keep the confidence that you can save the penalty." He'll shoot into the bottom left corner. ”

"Then you're going to pounce on the bottom left corner. Count it in mine. ”

You get 10 points to save, and if you can't save a penalty, there's nothing you can do.

The lower left corner is just Wang Zheng casually talking, hoping that Mane will be obedient.

John Stone suddenly felt much lighter and more agile in his steps.

After listening to Wang Zheng's words, his confidence also recovered a little.

Face Mane, take a deep breath and make a few jumps.

The footsteps seem to have moved a little to the right.

Mane saw it, he started, shot!

"Whoosh......"

The ball was fast and accurate, and sure enough, in the bottom left corner.

Johns moved a little bit to the right, and the center of gravity was definitely on the right.

But he was wrong, it was just a little ploy by John Stone, and his focus didn't move.

When he saw the shot, his body was already flying out to the bottom left corner.

The ball is in front of you, it's time to punch.

He quickly exerted his strength, and the ball smashed into his hand, and it hurt!

But it also bounced out and flew out of the big restricted area.

It was saved, the penalty was saved.

"Good shot! Fearsome reflexes, John Stone's reflexes are comparable to David De Gea's. ”

"Not good, there's still a chance to make up shots."

John Stone didn't go far and landed at the feet of Southampton centre-back Font.

It took Wundt a hundredth of a second to make a stoppage.

"Come in! Baby, I'm going to make a meritorious service. Font yelled inwardly, ready to celebrate.

Sadio Mane was frustrated, lying on his stomach as his team-mate shot right from behind, over his head and straight into the middle of the net.

John Stone was shocked that the left script could go up.

Boom.

Heavy sound, so painful in the footboard.

The ball hits the foot and goes over the crossbar.

'Two world-class saves, perfect saves. Two must-scores, both saved. Zhan Yingjun yelled presumptuously.

It's so exciting, two world-class saves in just a few seconds, maybe David couldn't have done it.

De Gea sat on the bench, seeing Johnstone's performance, his heart was furious, how could this young man have such a strong strength?

Usually the training match is not obvious, but the key is to the game, it is so flexible, no, I have to train hard, otherwise the young people will grab the class and seize power.

Goalkeeper coach Hawke was also very surprised to see Johnstone's performance, how could it be?

His body couldn't react so quickly at all, could it be that he secretly trained his body's flexibility?

"If John Stone had that quality, Lingard could have left. De Gea also has a sense of crisis, which is a good thing. ”

Both Mane and Fonte were on the verge of fainting, and both must-have goals were miraculously saved.

When the corner kick was taken, they didn't react.

Axel Tuanzebe kicked wide and Anthony Martial picked up the ball and sprinted all the way.

Beep...... Beep......

The referee blew the whistle for the end of the match.

In the fourth round of the League Cup, Manchester United won.

Advance to the semi-finals.

The semi-final will be against Tottenham Hotspur from London in January.

The player excitedly high-fived Wang.

Wang Zheng took advantage of the situation to withdraw his skill points and encouraged: "Remember the feeling of today's game, train with all your might, and maintain this state." ”

"The League Cup is still played by your young people."

Mensah and Anthony Martial are very general-oriented, and they can handle the tense scenes and have a future.

The main person responsible for the penalty is not Tuanzebe, but Blackett, who was easily shaken, Tuanzebe can only passively fill in the position, and there is no way to kick people.

Carrick was the most consistent in this game, and it would have been impossible for his team to keep a clean sheet if it weren't for his several clearances.

Fletcher is moving slowly, getting old, and is already on par with the three old defenders.

"I don't know if there's a way to keep the players young."

A player's professional life is very short, and when his body declines, his technical and tactical performance suffers, and Rooney is like that.

If it weren't for Wang Zheng's skill points, it's hard to say whether he can score 20 goals this season.

But now Wayne Rooney has scored 20 goals, and the national team has only scored two goals overall.

Skill points are limited! 80 points of skill points, if they are allocated, they will be gone, and they must be kept for about 10 points to spare, so that the replacement can have an immediate effect.

Like today's game, if Johnstone hadn't taken on 10 skill points, Mane's penalty would have been scored long ago.

Interviewed by reporters after the game, Wang Zheng was very relaxed.

He still pushed his players forward and faced the media, Anthony Martial, Mensah and John Stone.

Enjoy what it's like to be a star.

The League Cup is not an important competition, and many teams do not take it seriously. There are not many foreign media, but the Chinese media have a big circle.

But Johnstone and the others had a great time, and finally gave an interview, and of course they couldn't miss the opportunity.

Wang Zheng finally concluded that the League Cup game is a stage for Manchester United's young people, even if the next game is against Tottenham, they will choose young people to play.

Lu You smiled very mysteriously, "Coach Wang Zheng, Huaxia fans, and even fans all over the world are concerned about the questions, are you ready to answer?" ”

It's a matter of gossip again...... Wang Zheng was speechless.

Can you not answer? Emotional issues, really personal.
