At the moment when Jesus was fluctuating, Nemanja Matic, who had been fooled by Sane and ran into the penalty area, did not leave him more chances when the goal was in danger, and after two strides, he flew and jumped, and then stretched his legs, hoping to destroy Jesus' shot as much as possible.

Seeing Nemanja Matic make defensive moves, Gabriel Jesus woke up from his hair, and his brain didn't have time to think about it, so he raised his right foot and kicked it towards the football.

"Bang!" A bang!

It's not the sound of a football hitting the frame, it's the sound of Gabriel Jesus firing angrily.

Sane played a long pass from the left, Jesus stopped the ball and turned and burst into the right side of the penalty area, grabbing Nemanja Matic to shoot into the net from 12 yards before Matic blocked.

1:1!

“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooal！” With the roar of "goal", all the nervous Manchester City fans in the stands raised their original cheers and waved everything they could.

Seeing that the sworn rivals in the same city equalized before the end of the first half, the Red Devils on the field naturally quit.

Counterattack!

Crazy counterattack!

This is the only option for Manchester United!

Leading by one goal, working hard for a long time, and letting the opponent pull back, the mentality and momentum of Manchester United players will definitely be dealt a heavy blow.

Although it is now a draw, the Manchester United players who have not lost this season will certainly not be very dick-silk The first thought of "what should we do?" Offensive or defensive? "This is a matter of pure retardation.

However, now standing on the sidelines of Manchester United is Mourinho, who has always been criticized by the outside world for being ultra-conservative.

Offense is sure, but how to go about it?

Looking at Mourinho's silent performance, the Manchester United players on the field are very bottomless!

In contrast, the mentality of the Manchester City players is very good, and the momentum is definitely in a very high state.

Attacking or defending, it's definitely not a question – because the Manchester City players only have the attack on their minds right now.

Taking advantage of the victory and completely knocking Manchester United down is the only thought of all the Blue Moon players now.

Manchester United's backline was greatly challenged under Manchester City's attack, and in the 44th minute, Rojo received a yellow card for a foul on Gabriel Jesus, who was getting better and better after scoring a goal.

However, United soon tried to return the favor, and Marcus Rashford went down in front of a long run in front of Otamendi's defensive box, but the referee ignored it and the two teams had to go into the break with a 1-1 scoreline.

Although the score was equalized by Manchester City in the first half, Mourinho was still satisfied with the performance of the players on the field, and basically played the game he wanted.

The only thing that made him unhappy was that Rojo was in poor form after returning from injury, Jesus was supposed to be his target in the first half, but when Jesus scored, Rojo was not in his position at all, and the yellow card he received at the end of the first half was also a hidden danger.

So all things considered, Mourinho replaced the underperforming Rojo with Victor Lindelof, but did not make any changes in terms of tactics.

And Guardiola also replaced the team's central defender at halftime, replacing the old captain Kompany with Gundogan, who was obviously dissatisfied with the team's central defender's defense.

After the resumption of the second half, the two sides fell into a stalemate.

Gundogan, who replaced Kompany as the team's central defender, was unconsciously a little higher because of his previous habit of playing as a midfielder.

After noticing this, Dai Zhiwei quietly came to the place he thought was most suitable - side by side with Gundogan, hiding in the position where Manchester City's defense was just not offside.

Looking at Gundogan in front of him, just as Dai Zhiwei was thinking about Gundogan's information, Lingard in the back passed the football with one kick.

Watching the football quickly fly towards the position where the two were located, Dai Zhiwei opened his arms to block Gundogan's circle, and at the same time was ready to turn around and break through.

And Gundogan, who is behind Dai Zhiwei, feels that Dai Zhiwei is not weaker than his own strength, but he did not fight for the position at the first time, he is waiting for Dai Zhiwei to stop the football at the moment, that time is the best defensive opportunity.

But when the football fell to the two, Gundogan's plan fell into vain, because in Dai Zhiwei's heart, there was no intention of stopping the ball at all.

Looking at the football falling in front of him in the air, he raised his right foot, and with the outside of his instep against the football, he flicked it behind him, without giving Gundogan any chance to react, and at the same time turned his body to the right in an instant with his left foot as the axis.

Dai Zhiwei threw his right arm at Gundogan, and while blocking Gundogan's pursuit, he had already turned on his own hurricane mode and quickly chased towards the football.

Otamendi, who stayed behind, was shocked, and he didn't expect Gundogan to not play the slightest role in the face of Dai Zhiwei, so he could only hurriedly pounce on Dai Zhiwei.

At the same time, Rashford, who was on the other side, also began to fight fiercely for the position of Delph next to him.

As soon as Dai Zhiwei caught up with the football, Otamendi appeared in front of him, and looking at the defender who was already sweating all over his cheeks, he could clearly feel the tension emanating from the opponent's body.

Can Otamendi not be nervous?

In the three meetings between the two so far, Dai Zhiwei has scored 7 goals, which is like a contest between elementary school students and high school students.

Dai Zhiwei quickly buckled the football to the right, and when he heard Gundogan getting closer and closer behind him, he did not choose a tough breakthrough, but quickly crossed the football with his right foot, confusing Otamendi at the same time, and with a quick flick of his left foot, the football was picked up by Rashford, who ran over to pick him up.

Although Rashford was positioned closer to the ball than Delph, Delph pulled Rashford behind him with a hook of his arm, then stretched out his long leg and hooked the ball at the ball to snatch it from Rashford's feet.

"Hey, I might as well do it myself!"

Dai Zhiwei muttered, and didn't take this attack to heart, there is still game time, opportunities can still be created, not to mention that the Manchester City back line seems to be really a little subconsciously afraid of themselves.

After the football was acquired by Manchester City, the Manchester United players immediately retreated to the back quickly and succinctly, leaving Dai Zhiwei alone in the front field, and Rashford and Anthony Martial both ran back to participate in the defense.

In Jose Mourinho's Manchester United, there is absolutely no player who can not defend, even Dai Zhiwei has to go back to defend when he takes a set-piece.

When Delph snatched the football from Rashford's feet, he quickly handed the football to Silva in front, hoping to hit Manchester United by surprise, but the retreat that did not want to play Manchester United was unusually fast, leaving them no chance at all, and they were basically in place.

Seeing that there was no chance to play a fast attack, and on the other side, because of Dai Zhiwei's dismount just now, Gundogan, who had slightly restrained, did not dare to press rashly.

After Silva got the football, he could only take it step by step, and on both sides, Insua and Smalling also stuck to Sterling and Sane's side in time, and did not give Silva a chance to pass the ball.

With no goal left and right, looking at the crowded crowd in front of him, Silva could only reluctantly hand over the football to De Bruyne to organize the attack.

With plenty of manpower and a tacit area of coordination, Manchester United firmly blocked Manchester City's attacking line.

De Bruyne frowned tightly and could only pass the football to Silva behind him, but when De Bruyne passed the ball backwards, Silva had already run up recklessly, and there was a mistake between the two.

The ball rolled quickly on the grass, and for a moment no one was in control.

Manchester City's players made a mistake in coordination, but Manchester United's people had been preparing for a long time, and at the moment when the football escaped from the control of both sides, "Desperate Saburo" Lingard had already taken the opportunity to run up quickly, throwing off his legs and desperately chasing after the football.

An unexpected move instantly affected the entire equilibrium situation on the field.

Pulling a hair and moving the whole body, in an instant, almost all the personnel on both sides ran passively, and more than a dozen people moved quickly for the small football.

However, Lingard had an advantage over everyone else, leading the opposition and getting closer to the ball first, but he was not without danger, and with a distance of about two metres behind him, Fernandinho was desperately chasing back.

Hearing the increasingly urgent footsteps in his ears, Lingard who came to the football did not drag too much, and was a big foot in front of the football.

While the football flew high, it also successfully shifted the attention of the players of both sides to Manchester City's half.

Watching the ball fall from the air to the top of his head, while smiling bitterly, Rashford had to lean towards Delph, who was rapidly approaching behind him.

Unexpectedly, after a lot of effort, they still couldn't dodge in the end, and the two returned to hand-to-hand combat at close range.

Although forced by the situation, Rashford did not lack experience in physical confrontation, so while leaning on Delph, his arms were locked back at the same time, and he grabbed Delph's shirt tightly.

By the time the football fell in front of him, Rashford was not in the mood to wrestle with Delph at all, and with a hook of his right foot on the football, the ball flew over the heads of the two and landed on the left side of Manchester United.

Seeing Rashford and Delph preparing to scramble for the ball, Dai Zhiwei was secretly ready to respond.

When Marcus Rashford picked the ball past Delph and fell forward, Dai Zhiwei's long-hidden speed was once again on display in front of the Manchester City fans.

A breeze blew, and this time Gundogan didn't even have a chance to react, and before he could withdraw his attention from the football in the air, Dai Zhiwei under his nose had already slipped past him and walked towards the football.

Otamendi, who only sighed in his heart, had to fight for his life again and leaned towards Dai Zhiwei on the right.

Occupying the advantage of being closer to football, although it started one step later, Otamendi still ran alongside Dai Zhiwei, both of whom desperately threw out their arms, interfering with their opponents while rushing towards the football.

Compared with Otamendi, who opened his mouth wide and panted like a dead fish, Dai Zhiwei, whose chest was slightly undulating, was significantly more relaxed.

Feeling the rapid exertion of his body's strength, Otamendi had to come to terms with the fact that he was drifting away from the football's starting point.

By the time the two were entangled and came to the football landing point at the same time, Otamendi had been squeezed farther and farther away from the football by Dai Zhiwei.

Although he had squeezed the opponent to the point that he had lost the opportunity to scramble, Dai Zhiwei still didn't dare to be careless, looked at the football that was about to fall to the ground, quickly raised his right foot, and quickly buckled it in the air towards the falling football.

At the same time that the football was changed direction and went around the field from in front of the two, Dai Zhiwei's right foot fell behind him, and at the same time, his left foot twisted vigorously, and the whole person made a 270-degree turn against Otamendi.

Just when Otamendi's eyes moved to the left with the football, he suddenly felt that the right side was empty, and he lost his support, only to feel his legs weak, and after a while, he fell to the ground unwillingly.

Dai Zhiwei, who shook off Otamendi, quickly adjusted his center of gravity, and after a few big strides, he once again firmly controlled the football at his feet, looking at the empty in front of him, only Rashford and Delph in the middle not far away hurriedly approached the goal.

Once again, he exerted his full speed, instantly increased his speed to the limit, and with a hissing wind, he rushed towards the goal.

Looking at the sudden change in the situation on the field, just now it was Manchester City who controlled the scene, and in an instant it became Manchester United to get a great opportunity, in the silence of the fans who were either expecting or worried, they had already involuntarily and quickly occupied, watching the changes in the situation on the field with concern, without caring whether they were blocking the fans behind them.

Unexpectedly, the two teammates were broken through by the other party, and Walker on the left side also hurriedly took steps towards the goal, while goalkeeper Ederson kept moving his steps nervously, while constantly blocking the angle of Dai Zhiwei's shot, while also nervously looking at Rashford, who was entangled with Delph getting closer and closer to the goal.

At this time, there was a strange scene on the field, players on both sides were desperately rushing towards the Manchester City penalty area, but it could not affect the development of the situation at all, and the only ones who had the ability to influence the situation were Dai Zhiwei, Rashford, Delph and Manchester City's goalkeeper Ederson, as for Walker on the left, he had just stepped into the penalty area at this time.

Including the goalkeeper, a fantastic two-on-two situation was formed on the field. Sensing the change in the situation on the pitch, Rashford relied on a striker's keen sense of smell and moved towards the far end of the goal.

Involved by Rashford, Delph could only reluctantly move to the left, and in an instant the eyes of the entire Old Trafford stadium were focused on the duel between Dai Zhiwei and Ederson.

Pass the ball or shoot yourself?
