Carrington Training Base.

Manchester United's daily training is not a high-intensity tactical training, the players are interspersed with running on the field and grouping together, only using half of the field, a goalkeeper, and players from two teams need to reorganize the attack from outside the penalty area no matter who is in possession of the ball.

A sudden shout grabbed everyone's attention.

Tang Hong, who was resting off the field, was drinking water, but saw the team doctor running into the field to check on the injury of Van Persie, who was sitting on the ground and covering his ankle.

Van Persie sprained his ankle, which made Ferguson, who supervised the training, look unsightly, and after frowning and communicating with the team doctor, he lowered his head and should have said two swear words on the street.

Tang Hong didn't have much feeling about this, and it was not uncommon for him to get injured in training.

However, it is clear that Hernandez and Welbeck have been more motivated in the rest of their training.

Hey, here's their chance!

The news that Van Persie was injured and needed to be out of action for at least two weeks was quickly reported by Fleet Street and became the hottest news before the weekend.

Manchester United travel to Reading at the weekend.

Between Hernandez and Welbeck, Ferguson finally chose Welbeck, who has his own household registration book, to start as a central striker.

Reading are second to last in the league and the pressure of relegation can be imagined.

As soon as the game began, the fierce Reading team immediately launched an attack against Manchester United!

Manchester United thought that the opponent must also play defensive counterattacks, but this time they were caught off guard by the Reading team!

Just seven minutes into the game, Reading striker Robson Kanu scored with a header from inside the box, causing another blow to United's defence that had just kept two clean sheets in a row!

Manchester United fans are not optimistic, and they don't know why, anyway, without Van Persie, it seems that their team is incomplete!

In the 11th minute of the game, Tang Hong, who was advancing on the left side of the front field, encountered the opponent's joint defense, he saw the opportunity to send the ball diagonally into the middle of the penalty area, and after the ball, he accelerated and ran into the left rib of the penalty area, only waiting for Welbeck to pass the ball over again before he could get up and shoot.

Reading's defensive performance is actually terrible, full of holes!

Otherwise they wouldn't be in the bottom two of the league.

To Tang Hong's helplessness, Welbeck turned around and shot after stopping the ball.

The quality of the shot was not high, and goalkeeper Federrich saved the ball off the line.

Welbeck was not reconciled, having scored a goal in United's massacre of Queens Park Rangers a week ago, and he is looking to take advantage of Robin van Persie's injury and unplaying!

By what?

Looks? Hairstyle? Hukou booklet?

Goals, of course!

When he didn't know if he was secretly determined to make the next opportunity, Tang Hong looked at him with dissatisfaction in his eyes on the way back, but he didn't notice it.

Reading naturally knew that a one-goal lead was not safe, so they still launched an onslaught!

In the 13th minute, Reading striker Robles' shot was brilliantly saved by De Gea, and the Reds quickly launched a fast attack.

Tang Hong received a pass from Shinji Kagawa from the side of the cut, and then he advanced all the way to the middle of the penalty area and passed the ball to Welbeck, after the ball Tang Hong still kept running to the right rib of the penalty area, his running position has completely gotten rid of the Reading team's defense!

But Welbeck struck the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal with a tricky push, and the ball grazed the outside of the left post and rolled off the line.

Manchester United fans are lamenting, and Welbeck is looking up and lamenting bad luck.

When he rubbed his face and put his hands down, Tang Hong trotted past him, turned his head and said to him in a deep voice: "If you don't pass the ball next time, I guarantee that you won't have another chance to shoot!" ”

Welbeck was scolded by Tang Hong on the field at the beginning of the season, as if the scene at that time was repeated again, and Welbeck still didn't dare to fight back!

But it only strengthened his determination to score!

In fact, Tang Hong really didn't target Welbeck, the key is that Manchester United is behind now!

In terms of player characteristics, if it were Hernandez, he would not have any opinion, because Hernandez is more about grabbing points in front of goal, but Welbeck is different.

If he doesn't know how to make balls for his teammates, then his role is almost nil!

Just 2 minutes later, Rooney successfully counter-grabbed the ball on the right side, Valencia quickly advanced on the right side and knocked the ball across the middle of the penalty area, Welbeck did see Tang Hong cut into the left rib of the penalty area from the left side, he hesitated, and saw the opposing defender pounce on the forced and subconsciously passed the ball diagonally to the left rib of the penalty area.

Tang Hong watched the football roll past his feet as his whole body stopped.

The linesman has raised the flag to signal him offside!

A somewhat admiring smile appeared on Tang Hong's face and gave Welbeck a thumbs up.

After all, I still don't want to pass it on!

If you want to pass the ball, you should pass it first, and at that time he will definitely not be offside!

But in the end, there was no way but to pass the ball, and Tang Hong had already run into the offside area.

Convinced!

Do you really think that England and Manchester United's academy accounts could have been used as gold medals to avoid death?

In the 24th minute of the game, Carrick intercepted the ball at the back and sent a through ball.

Originally, it seemed that Welbeck was going to pick it up, but Tang Hong quickly rushed to him to rush the ball away!

This time, even the Reading defense was a little caught off guard, and when Welbeck was stunned in place for a second and then turned to step forward, he found that Tang Hong was closer to the opponent's penalty area than him!

Tang Hong knocked the ball across the right side when he encountered the Reading defender, Valencia rushed up and sent a cross to the right rib of the penalty area, Tang Hong stepped forward just to arrive, and immediately picked the ball to the middle of the penalty area after stopping the ball, turned around and rubbed shoulders with Reading's last defender Morrison, and then hit a push at the penalty spot against the falling football!

After all, it's the left foot, and it's better to push it safely for fear of flying with a volley.

The soccer ball flies straight to the bottom left corner of the goal!

Goalkeeper Federrich made a save to the limit but couldn't touch the football.

The Red Devils fans who came to the away stadium burst into cheers!

Tang Hong ignored Welbeck when he turned around and walked to the midfield, believing that the other party had begun to understand that what Tang Hong said to him just now was not a joke!

After high-fives with Shinji Kagawa and Rooney, Tang Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

Reading continued their aggressive offensive campaign after the equaliser.

In the 31st minute of the game, after Manchester United's defense at the back was successful, he launched a fast attack from the left side, Evra assisted to the front to receive Rooney's pass, and then encountered the defense and found that Tang Hong had moved to the middle and knocked the ball to Shinji Kagawa.

Shinji Kagawa continued to dribble forward, and halfway through the midfield defense of the Reading team with Tang Hong, and when he reached the front of the penalty area, Welbeck found that his position overlapped with Tang Hong, to put it bluntly, the two were crowded in the same position area, but he did not have the rhythm of Tang Hong and Kagawa Shinji in the cooperation.

When Shinji Kagawa hit the left rib of the penalty area and received Tang Hong's second pass, Welbeck consciously stepped forward to outflank, but saw the football from Shinji Kagawa rolling a meter away from him, looking in the direction of the football rolling, the picture that caught his eye was Tang Hong in the middle of the goal to meet the ball and push the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!

After Tang Hong broke the door, he rushed to Shinji Kagawa to hug and celebrate!

Welbeck is already a bit messy!

Whether it's Wayne Rooney or the rest of his teammates, they can see that there is a problem up front!

But now that Manchester United have taken the lead, they naturally don't have any opinions to say.

The Reading team's mentality is a little explosive, and then they simply attack with the whole army!

I didn't expect it to work.

When the Reading men pressed the ball and launched a hanging attack, the United defence was in disarray.

In the 39th minute of the game, Reading center forward Le Fondre sent the ball into the Manchester United goal in a scramble!

2:2！

At the end of the first half, the players of Manchester United and Reading walked into the dressing room with great unwillingness.

Before Ferguson returned, Ferdinand asked Tang Hong, "What the are you guys doing?" Although we had goals, the attack was a mess. ”

Tang Hong faced the captain's questioning and mercilessly scolded back.

"Did you ask the wrong person? If you don't want to mess up the offense, replace him or me, it's okay! ”

Ferdinand stopped talking for a moment, he knew who the team was relying on for the attack now, even if he lacked a string in his head, and it was not today, it was the first game of the new season until now!

Rooney said to Tang Hong with some dissatisfaction: "We are a team! He's got a couple of chances, he's got a couple of balls that shouldn't have been crossed, but we can't target each other! ”

Tang Hong grinned and said, "If I play football on the first day, I may really believe your nonsense."

Are we a team? We have to have the same goal first and do everything we can to win, then we can be a team!

I don't deny that he was right to want to score, but also look at the situation!

If the boss says it doesn't matter if he loses today's game, I'll just pass him the ball and watch him perform, whether he's jerking off or shooting Reading's goal, I don't have a problem!

But you can't just say that we are a team, and we can score goals and miss the opportunity, and it is no problem if we can't win the game in the end!

Just when I'm targeting him, yes, I'm targeting him now!

What's wrong?

What do you want me to do?

When he flies a chance, go over and hug him and cheer him on? Encourage him?

If you think that leveling up with him and giving him experience is a sign of our unity, I have nothing to say!

As long as someone can make it up to me at the end of the season with the championship medal that should be mine!

You've won a lot of Premier League titles, I haven't won them yet, I'm so realistic! ”

Just then, Ferguson walked into the dressing room with a gloomy face, and he heard part of their argument.

No one spoke in the dressing room, and Welbeck sat in front of the closet with a slightly aggrieved expression.

Ferguson said in a deep voice: "If you can win the game with your mouth, I'll let you quarrel enough!"

Leo, if the team concedes another goal in the second half, you're going to fucking shut up forever!

Tang Hong, if Manchester United can't score in the second half, you can also shut up for me in the future!

Javier, go out and warm up! ”

Ferdinand was expressionless, but his heart was up and down.

Damn, don't drop the ball?

Even if he fights hard, he can't guarantee that Evans and De Gea will be able to protect the city gate!

Tang Hong raised his chin slightly, even if there was pressure, he would face it with his head held high!

Hernandez got up and walked out of the locker room to warm up on the pitch.

Welbeck looked stunned, knowing that Ferguson was going to substitute him.
