264 Who is the king of the Red Devils?
For the first time, the atmosphere in the United dressing room was so tense and depressing at half-time.
As the players left the locker room and walked back to the court, Shinji Kagawa walked side by side with Tang Hong in the players' tunnel, and he whispered to Tang Hong, "Aren't you afraid of being isolated?" ”
Tang Hong frowned and said, "Why was it isolated?" Just because I contradict them? No, everybody's starting point is different, Rio Ferdinand wants to win, he wants the team to attack better, so that Manchester United can score at least one more goal than their opponents, then we can win, Rooney wants to make everyone have a better relationship, that's all.
We have different starting points. ”
Shinji Kagawa asked again, "You really don't like Welbeck?" ”
Tang Hong shook his head and said: "I don't like it or not, I say the simplest point, if you always rush to the opponent's penalty area to grab points, how many people in the team do you think will be dissatisfied with you?" ”
Shinji Kagawa laughed and said, "Then I definitely won't even have a chance to play." ”
Tang Hong nodded and said: "That's the truth, do things within your ability well, and don't try too much things beyond your ability!"
I can understand his desire to score goals and perform, but it doesn't make him better, on the contrary, it's bad.
I don't think we can bet on whether he will be able to put the ball in the opponent's goal next time, especially since we don't have to concede a goal as slowly as we can score! ”
Shinji Kagawa nodded knowingly, and then the two exchanged their views on the second half of the game.
United made a substitution before the start of the second half, with Hernandez coming on and Welbeck coming off.
Perhaps it was the midfielder who gave the order to make the defence tense.
Shortly after the start of the second half, Rafael was fouled on the wing and gave the opposition a chance to attack from a set-piece.
Reading's men's pressure was on United when defending set-pieces.
But when the set-piece cross came to the back of the penalty area, it was really pushed into the goal by Reading defender Morrison!
Ferdinand's face changed!
Before the restart, he yelled at his teammates in defence.
Tang Hong also really admires Manchester United's defensive line, it may have been a hardware problem before, but now he has become nervous, as if he is about to have a mental problem.
Reading went from leading to falling behind, and now overtaking, and their morale is high.
The home fans cheered them on as hard as they could, hoping to stay ahead until the end of the game!
Since Manchester United is behind in the score, there is nothing to worry about, continue to attack the Reading defence!
Tang Hong was more tightly defended in the second half, he actively ran to get rid of it, and the opponent blocked the front of the penalty area, and he frequently created chances on the wing.
In the 67th minute of the game, he and Shinji Kagawa collided with the wall on the left side of the front field and crossed into the left rib of the penalty area, and swept the ball in front of the goal in front of the baseline, Hernandez sent the ball into the goal in the crowd!
Manchester United equalize again!
It's not the right thing, not the right person, Hernandez is just doing the work of outflanking in front of the door, and it is a little unreasonable not to create opportunities for him.
Although Hernandez didn't go to celebrate after breaking the goal, he still went to Tang Hong to give a high-five on the way back.
Reading are not reconciled, but with just over 20 minutes left in the game, can they still fight against Manchester United?
Reading didn't need to make a decision, and United's ensuing frenzied attack only forced them to defend.
Manchester United launched an all-out pressing attack, and in the 71st minute of the game, Shinji Kagawa's long-range shot in front of the penalty area was saved by Reading goalkeeper Federisch.
Two minutes later, Wayne Rooney found the box in the box and headed high after receiving a cross from Valencia.
In the 75th minute, when Reading faced Tang Hong's free kick again, one more person was arranged than usual to widen the angle of the human wall block.
Tang Hong's free-kick is hoisted into the box and headed high by Evans.
Reading's sporadic counter-attacks all fell in front, and the United defence had been fine for more than 30 minutes since conceding in the second half.
But now the team needs to score even more.
When the game came to the 80th minute, Patrice Evra's cross from the left was blocked, Carrick controlled the ball in the middle of the field and passed straight to Hernandez, who pulled out of the box, and the latter kicked the ball to Tang Hong, who was running inside.
Tang Hong knocked the ball back to Shinji Kagawa in the back with his heel in the multi-man package.
The Japanese midfielder saw that the front was densely populated and the angle was badly blocked, so he controlled the ball and adjusted his face to the direction and moved the ball to the right side with a long diagonal pass.
Ashley Young, who came on as a substitute not long ago, stopped the ball on the side and sent a high-quality cross that bypassed the Reading defender's back line but left the goalkeeper hesitant to attack!
Hernandez has already shot in the middle of the point, but it is still a fraction of a second!
Seeing the football pass in front of his feet, Hernandez was about to lament, but saw the football fly into the Reading team's goal!
He turned his head to see that Tang Hong braked in front of the post and rushed to the sideline after completing the action of grabbing the point.
The players near Manchester United all roared to chase Tang Hong's figure, and Hernandez was no exception, getting up and smiling and rushing over.
Tang Hong rushed to the away team's fan stand and knelt passionately, and before the end of the sliding kneeling, he stood up again and kicked the corner kick flagpole, with a cold and domineering face!
"Wow! Tang Hong grabbed the point and shot the ball again, again, again into the Reading team's goal!
Another hat-trick!
A week ago he scored his second hat-trick of the season at Old Trafford, and a week later he scored his third hat-trick of the season!
This goal machine is unstoppable!
Manchester United and Reading played inextricably together today, and the game was full of twists and turns, but as Manchester United fans joked on social media: Manchester United can score the goal casually, but Manchester United will take away the victory!
Before the halfway point of the league, the Chinese striker has already scored 22 league goals, and he is refreshing his own goal statistics at an astonishing rate!
Tang Hong, who has just won the European Golden Boy Award, is rushing to the Golden Globe Award with his wonderful performance on the field!
Maybe we'll see his name on the list of candidates for next year's Golden Globe Awards!
Manchester United lead Reading 4-3 away from home! ”
Ferguson finally smiled on the sidelines, and his gaze at Tang Hong became delighted.
With little clock left in the game, Reading made a desperate gamble to launch a final assault.
However, the problem is still a lack of quality, and the attacking organization relies on long balls to rush and pile up attacking players in the box to try to bombard Manchester United's goal.
In the 87th minute, United's clearance at the back turned into an attacking move.
Hernandez stopped the ball in front of the centre circle and knocked the ball across to Tang Hong on the wing.
Tang Hong, who rushed up from the backcourt, greeted the ball without the slightest hesitation and sent a straight plug over the top.
Hernandez's running position has made him open the distance of the defenders, and when Tang Hong's overhead straight plug was sent over, Hernandez also successfully countered offside, and even stopped and went into the penalty area to go to the meeting alone!
Hernandez faced the onrushing goalkeeper Federich with a pinpoint push into the bottom left corner of the net.
The goal completely killed Reading, and Hernandez ran to the sidelines to celebrate with a smile and did not forget to turn around and hug Tang Hong, who provided him with an assist.
At this point, the camera was focused on Welbeck, who was sitting on the bench at Manchester United.
Even if the outside world doesn't know what happened in the dressing room at half-time, there are some clues to be guessed if Welbeck was substituted at half-time.
Hernandez scored two goals in the second half, and at the same time, Tang Hong played a hat-trick and assisted the perfect data of scoring two goals!
If you don't look at Wayne Rooney as a striker, this is also the first time that Tang Hong has assisted a Manchester United striker to score a goal in a game that is about to pass the halfway point of the season.
After all, Wayne Rooney is now positioned closer to the midfield.
In the final minutes of the game, United controlled the tempo and Reading were disappointed.
After the game, he returned to the locker room with the game ball, and Tang Hong had already forgotten the quarrel in the midfield.
However, Ferdinand came to Tang Hong's side and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a very senior manner: "I played well today." ”
Tang Hong laughed dumbly, and Rooney smiled at Ferdinand: "We conceded in the second half, shouldn't you shut up?" ”
Ferdinand glared at Rooney, but didn't argue anything more.
Speaking in his post-match interview about the removal of Welbeck in midfield, Ferguson said lightly: 'He was in average form today, we need to be a threat in front of goal, there is no better role than Xavier, you can see his performance in the second half, this substitution was the right one. ”
Ferguson changed the subject, not wanting to go into a deep conversation about Welbeck.
Ferguson has only signed Welbeck for four years in the summer, and Ferguson's expectations for Welbeck have never been lowered, but now it seems that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
And now the situation of the team is more complicated.
The defensive line has never been stable, and the attack relies too much on Tang Hong and Van Persie.
But at least two of Hernandez's goals in the second half came from Tang Hong's assist, which gave Ferguson something new.
This forced him to re-examine the structure of the forward line again.
To put it simply, Manchester United's overall attack now has to serve Tang Hong and Van Persie.
Whoever can maximize the offensive firepower of these two will be the best candidates.
Welbeck, who turned 22 just five days ago, does have room to improve, but the complicated situation of Manchester United this season has made Ferguson dare not give him time and space to improve his experience.
In the context of Van Persie's injury and temporary absence, Tang Hong has become the only thigh on Manchester United's forward line!
At this time, don't mess up the front line.
Manchester City was forced to draw at home by Everton in this round, even though Manchester City has been unbeaten with 9 wins and 6 draws since the new season, but the gap between them and Manchester United has become 7 points!
Manchester United will travel to the Etihad Stadium to challenge Manchester City in the next round!
The countdown to the Manchester derby begins!
